    I got roku TV hooked to the Google assistant with no problem at all. Then I discovered that I could turn the TV off, turn the volume up and down but no matter what I do I can’t get it to change channels even using the same wording that you used and I can’t get it to turn on if it’s off. I bought the same TV and assistant for an elderly relative and I can actually turn her TV off using routines from my house I can turn the volume up and down from my house a mile away. I can remind her to take her medicine, lock door at night but can’t turn it on or change the channels. Help please😩
