I seem to remember a little while ago when I hooked up my HomePod to my Apple TV 4K I could tell Siri to open apps, adjust volume, swipe up/ down ect. Currently I can tell Siri to turn on/off my Apple TV and play music on my Apple TV but that is it. Is there a setting I need to change or did Apple change this in a software/firmware to the HomePod. (If so is there a way for me to downgrade my HomePod to that software version?) Thank you in advance😁

HomePod Did the HomePod ever serve as Fire TV cube in a sense?

I can still have it adjust the volume when I’m watching content on the ATV (the HomePod is the default audio though) but I’m pretty sure Apple announced at WWDC that HomePods (Minis to be specific but I’m pretty sure the OG will get that too) will be able to control the ATV with TVOS15. I don’t remember being able to do anything like that in the past but I’ve only had ATVs and HomePods since mid 2019.
