My experience is that the chime does have a very good field of view. Nearly 180 is probably correct.

They also have a 15 degree wedge kit which I've installed in a few situations like yours and that helps to some degree (well, 15 to be exact)

I personally despise the 'modern' C4 look but to each there own. I much prefer the 'traditional' version (especially in midnight black with an actual stainless steel cover).
 
That said, tastes will differ. I do like these: https://www.axxind.com/smarthome/touch-keypads/
 
Rithum is another options that I've looked at but never used them. I'm concerned about speed of control a bit on those and just had zero time to trial them.
 
In the end, we've done VERY few alternative options - because the added cost of alternative keypads with less snappy control, or much more expensive keypads that work just as well tends to convince even the most 'liquid' clients. 🤷‍♂️
We've played with some KNX options and things like the blacknova aria but it's rarely gone anywhere, and frankly they rarely work quite as well as a regular keypad.
Most cases it's a few alternate options in specific locations such as decked out theatres but the majority still regular keypads.
The problem with the overly fancy options is also that they POP a lot more. Which is nice in a demo setup and looks great on a web page showing one of them....but it tends to become this obvious thing sticking out on every wall of your house if you put them everywhere and actually can feel like MORE wall clutter, not less. Just something to consider.
Also, while the 'touch' look is again nice, think of how you live and move around in the house. A 'tactile' keypad over the course of a bit of time become muscle memory - you walk across the house and merely 'feel' what button to press, do so blindly and move along and you get what you want. Generally for any touch options - you will ALWAYS stop and look at what you're doing.
 
Not telling you NOT to do alternate and fancy options - but don't get drawn too much into the look of something, that may be better of not being noticeable at all.
 
Those are touchscreen alternatives, as in an alternative for using a touchscreen, not so much keypads, and I find them rather 'meh'
 
 

I would not recommend using anything other than Control4 keypads, or a Control4 touchscreen.  The Control4 keypads are modern looking if you go with the Contemporary button style...I install them in many client homes that are worth 10+ Million and they are perfectly happy with them.

I would recommend performing a network reset on the controller, and if that doesn't work, perform a factory reset (make sure you have a backup of your project first!)
To reset the controller network settings to the default:
1 Disconnect power to the controller.
2 While pressing and holding the ID button on the back of the controller, reconnect power to the controller.
3 Hold the ID button until the Caution LED (rear ID LED) appears solid orange and the Link and Power LEDs are solid blue, and then immediately release the button

yeah this is a nightmare in the making...

yeah it should be pretty near instant, sometimes I send a Refresh Navigators but I'm not sure if that really does anything, and it sounds like you've already done that if you're seeing it in the app.

It is possible to trigger an announcement out to Josh devices from Control4, using the Generic TCP driver and a Josh scene. For example I set it up for a client who wanted to have his micros play a doorbell announcement when someone pressed the button on his Ring doorbell. This also required the Ring driver for C4 of course.  Not sure if that's what you're referring to or not. 

I have a hosted unifi cloud controller we can just point your devices to that if you want. You shouldnt need a router. 

@SimplyAV I had a different dealer during this issue. Currently, my dealer is @chopedogg88
 
He is excellent.

Sinope has native Control4 zigbee thermostats which work with hydronic or electric radiant heating.  They must be purchased by a Control4 dealer-

My schedule has freed up a bit, let me know if I can assist with any of your remote programming needs!  Control4, Josh.ai, Lutron, Savant, etc.

I've upgraded several systems to 3.4.1 and have not run into this issue, so my guess is that its something specific to your environment.  Are you sure that all components (controllers, touchscreens etc) are on 3.4.1?  I would probably recommend reflashing the controller to 3.4.1 and loading a backup. Perhaps something got corrupted during the update.

It needs to be configured in the Connections area which is only available in Composer Pro... So you need a dealer to do it. 

Your options are to expand the box to be a 4 gang, or add 2 switches to the wall on the other side, if you are lucky enough to have the other side be somewhere hidden (closet or something). Or fish wires to a nearby cabinet and put some switches in that.
