Sometimes i take a siri remote into the living room Apple TV 4, and pair it up, Apple TV 4 is my parents, and they use a Harmony, (but for my own uses i just prefer pairing the siri remote as that's what i'm comfortable using on own other Apple TV 4)
Since third party remote is usually used, i turn of opt which would only affect siri remote..
However, sometimes after i pair it, the volume buttons on the remote control TV volume fine, but Apple TV requires a restart (unplug at wall) before trackpad will be recognized.
any reason why this is? In addition, on my own Apple TV, where i do use the Siri remote, I can never get it to control TV, expect volume alone.. The switch to the correct HDMI must always be done manually.
Are their special requirements for this last step?
