Hello Guys,

I have the sonos beam and google assistant installed.

I have a Samsung 2020 TU8005 TV, the google assistant will not “TURN OFF TV”.

The system works great - “TURN ON” “VOLUME up down”, etc… all of them work.
But “TURN OFF TV” does not work.

Any idea?

Thanks

I own a Samsung and needed to link my SmartThings account to GA. I can now say “hey Google, turn off Samsung” and my TV turns off.
