Describe the bug

• When Installing the Alexa app on 2 different android devices (with the same account) it will result in one entity called media_player.this_device and another one called media_player.this_device_2
• only the last instance media_player.this_device_2 will be accessible to play media.
• the older entity will have an error message:<This entity ('media_player.this_device') does not have a unique ID, therefore its settings cannot be managed from the UI. See the documentation for more detail.>

To Reproduce

1. install alexa app on an android device
2. reload the alexa integration
3. confirm the media_player.this_device is present
4. install alexa app on another android device
5. reload the alexa integration
6. confirm a new entity media_player.this_device_2 is present
7. the older instance will be marked with an error message about a duplicate identity_ID
8. After restarting HA, the error message on the older instance will change to : This entity is no longer being provided by the alexa_media integration. If the entity is no longer in use, delete it in settings.

Expected behavior

Each Alexa installation should result in the creation of a new media_player.this_device but with a different name and different identity_ID
