I found the fix. It sucks but works. Get a Bluetooth speaker and connect it to your device. Select the Bluetooth as output, then toggle back to the speaker you want. Voila. Fucking Apple man.

I found nice silicone covers on Amazon for all my remotes. They can now hang vertically on the back of a couch without slipping down.

It’s wild because I’m getting no sound from Apple TV in wireles speakers UNLESS it’s live broadcast in Amazon prime.
