AirPlay compatible will mean that it can act as a destination for AirPlay content, or even potentially a source. HomeKit is a separate set of protocols, for which I'm fairly sure you need a HomePod, Apple TV or iPad to function as a Home Hub.

Have you connected the LG TV to your Wi-Fi network yet? Is your network using any wireless isolation or guest network feature that might stop devices on the network communicating with each other?
