Eliminating annoying messages on your TV when using a universal remote
After you disable your TV speakers, your television might display an annoying or confusing message whenever you adjust the volume on the PLAYBAR. This could be a message reminding you that your TV speakers are off, or a volume indicator unrelated to the sound from your PLAYBAR. Try the steps below to configure your universal remote so this message no longer appears when you increase or decrease the PLAYBAR’s volume.
If you do not own a universal remote, Sonos recommends you purchase a Logitech® Harmony® remote.
