Apologies if this has been addressed before but I tried searching the issue to see if there is a solution.
I am controlling a Samsung TV via IP using a Crestron Certified IP driver. It works great for the TV however, After I added a Sonos Playbar via optical, it will not control the Playbar volume. I understand why but the native TV "smart remote" is set up to control Sonos wirelessly. I assume it must establish a bluetooth link with the TV.
Does anyone have a workaround or solution or... will I need to break down and use an IR emitter?
Thanks in advance...

Use the crestron IP driver for sonos. Already on this however, my control system and Sonos are on different VLANS. I have it working this way on another but can't figure why it is not working here. I used the Dynamic touch panel method on that other job but was trying the static method for this one since I only needed volume and mute for one zone on a remote. I set it up much like the demo program but still no luck.

IR or IP are the only options. He is referring to the tv remote controlling the tv, I believe.

Which model Samsung? Some of the remotes can emit IR too -- if you set them up to control an A/V receiver.

Thanks in advance... Did you go into the Playbar settings to determine how it gets the audio signal?
