But when I do lxc config device info it shows empty string:

ubuntu@lxd-cluster-main:~$ lxc config device show matrix-server
{}

Not sure whats the problem.

The problem is that you’re inheriting those devices from a profile so they’re not directly part of the container’s configuration. Look at lxc config show --expanded matrix-server which will show you the entire configuration with all the bits inherited from profiles.
