sonos Beam turns tv on when playing music

When I play music via Beam I need tu turn the TV on otherwise I cannot play music. Also when I ask Google to play music from YouTube music the Beam responds but does not play music unless I have the TV one. Is there a setting so I don't have to have the TV on to listen to music?

What is the source of the music? If it’s from the tv, then yes.
