Unplug it, or move it when you unplug it?

My Beam blocks my TV's IR sensor which causes the remote to fail to work.

Putting blocks under the TV legs to move it up 3/4 inch solved that.

Won't function or won't change volume? The Ray needs an ir remote and needs to be configured for it: Control Sonos home theater with your TV remote | Sonos
