I don’t have that controller. I have this and it works with HA... just bought the lights and power separately.

If you don't mind going the DIY route, you could probably come in under $100 for parts for the strips:
Instead of the flat channel, you might be better off with angled channel for mounting the strips above the cabinets, since they'll throw more light on the wall, which is what you'll actually see - https://www.amazon.com/LEDwholesalers-Aluminum-Mounting-Installations-1901-V/dp/B00PJSSD7K/
There's a ZWave RGBW controller but it's more expensive than the wifi one and can take some more configuration: https://www.amazon.com/Fibaro-Micro-Controller-Z-wave-Strips/dp/B00P1N68FW/
If you get the snap-on connectors, I recommend putting a small amount of solder on all of the pads where you'll be connecting them on the strips, so that they make a good connection.
As for the puck lights, you could probably get something like this and wire the distributor to the wifi/ZWave controller, instead of plugging it into the controller it comes with: https://www.amazon.com/Changing-Christmas-Furniture-Ambiance-Lighting/dp/B01N2I47VH/ref=sr_1_2
I'm not the person you replied to, but I've been using the older version of these for about two years. Alexa integration was added about 8 months ago, if I remember right.
This is the version I have, and it works just like voice commands for hue or LIFX.
They work with LED strips like this one which aren't as nice as the Hue strips, but are considerably cheaper.
so essentially this https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01DY56N8U
would be perfect then? and home assistant could provide the events for the ramp up and down of each channel?
Get the https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01DY56N8U/ RGBW controller with any RGBW light strip. The controller will soon be supported in Home Assistant.
On Ledenet's site, they sell the Milight controllers. But they link to another one in the corner that's on Aliexpress, so maybe some of those?
There's also this controller which has middling reviews, but seems to fit in with what you were saying.

I've done what you have suggested and the bridge shows no error. I have then re-added a modified version of the config.json file by removing the accessory that I was trying to add in the first place, this one:
{
"accessory": "MagicHome",
"name": "Desk Lamp",
"ip": "192.168.1.111",
"setup": "RGBW",
"purewhite": false
},
This is the accessory that I want to add https://www.amazon.ca/LEDENET-Smart-Controller-Channels-Control/dp/B01DY56N8U/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1549919639&sr=8-1&keywords=5+channel+rgbww+wifi+controller
I have relaunched homebridge and now all the other accessories work within HomeKit https://photos.app.goo.gl/DYH1E5hHLnJoAihB8. I don't understand why it works without the accessory above in the config.json file. Any suggestions?
Thank you for your help once again!
I use these https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0778TNKC6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_ZVcADb8M4XC63
However it depends on the type of LEDs you use. Mine are cheap RGBW, so they work with this controller. RGBWW would need something like this:

What exactly is the issue with yours? Did you ensure they're cloud connected via the magichome app and not just in AP mode?
