Thanks all! Got it! Just have to think of a way to automate all or most of it for the homeowner lol.
Don't use CEC and connect the TV using an optical cable. That makes it work. I like to listen to various sources and watch TV, too- CEC makes it a PITA and I wouldn't consider using that with a universal remote or other automation system, regardless of the fact that the commands can be repeated.
