Cannot log into Alexa account for first time setup

[su37kk]

I am trying to setup this plugin but I do not ever get the Amazon login screen as shown in the setup instructions. I only ever get the webpage with the QR code that attempts to install the Alexa app. When I click on the "Go To Alexa App" button on that page, the Alexa app is brought to fore ground but then nothing happens. I tried to turn off JS and clear cookies as instructed in common-issues, but then localhost:7002 landing page says I need to turn on JS to it to work. So to summarize, I can neither login to Alexa using the credential dialog box in the browser nor login/get the cookie using the Alexa app.
