I had the same problem, when you run it through sudo i think it uses the .homebridge config directory from /root/
Try forcing a specific config directory by running it again with sudo homebridge -U /home/username/.homebridge

You might also want to delete the persist folder in .homebridge and reset HomeKit to start from scratch if it still isn’t working.

Check your config.json file. It seems that there is no bridge parameter.

[jonbid]

yes, adding the bridge parameter fix that problem for me as well.
