It appears this model soundbar originally has an IR remote. Then other IR remotes may emulate the same commands. Note that for volume control, the remote communicates directly with the audio system, not through the Apple TV. You will need unobstructed line-of-sight to the IR receptor on the audio system, same as with the original Bose remote.

If the default volume controls from the Apple TV remote don’t work for your audio system, then you may need to re-program for that device.
