LG TV With External Moto Speakers & Remote Won't Control Volume

I have the DirecTV Genie system.  The DirecTV remote controls the volume of the tv.  I just bought a couch with Moto Media speakers in them and have connected them with digital audio cables.  I cannot get the remote to control the volume of these new Moto speakers.  Does anyone know how to program the remote to control the volume on these Moto Media speakers?

Hi, @Zincdust. Try these steps to program your Genie remote with your Moto Media speakers:

  1. Point the remote at your Genie HD DVR, Genie Mini, or Wireless Genie Mini.

  2. Press and hold the MUTE and ENTER buttons (not the SELECT button). Stop when the green light at the top of the remote blinks twice.

  3. When the TV screen displays Applying IR/RF setup, you are in RF mode and ready to program the remote.

  4. Power on the device you want your remote to control.

  5. Press MENU on your remote.

  6. Select Settings > Remote Control > Program Remote.

  7. Select the device you wish to control with the remote.

  8. Follow the on-screen prompts to complete programming.
