Hi, I am in the 15.1 beta and Apple TV 4K 2021 Siri on the new remote is not workin. I tried all the troubleshootings with not a chance. Anybody has this proble?
 
Hi vagos1103gr, I'm also have issues with my Apple TV remote.

My remote just stopped working one day. Didn't get dropped or damaged in anyway!
The volume button still operated my tv so I know that button worked and theirs power but I charged it up anyway.
Holding the Menu & Vol+ or Back & Vol+ do nothing. No LED Flash activity!
Using my iPhone I deleted the remote hoping this would work but it didn't.
Next I tried Resetting the Apple TV it's self. This also didn't work.
What is strange, is if I hold down the Menu button and the Home button it Forces the Apple TV to reboot!
So what's going on here?
Is it the Remote or the Apple TV or Software?
The Apple TV is up to Date and at this time its version 15

might be some other appliance near it causing interference or where your Apple TV is placed?

Yes I’ve heard that’s possible with Apple but I don’t think so, not in my case. Nothing has changed over the last year. Same tv, same place and no new devices. To confirm 100% I will move it and test though
 
I downloaded a free application called Sirimote which connects your Apple TV remote to your iMac. This showed me that it's the remote with the problem and not the Apple TV unit it's self. Why don't Apple have a checking service like this already?
