Apple TV remote won’t change volume

The Apple TV remote on the newest model won’t change the volume of the television. Already tried resetting the controller by pressing the tv button and volume button. Didn’t work. Also changed the volume control setting in the home theatre section but that didn’t work either. Any tips?

Apple TV 4K, tvOS 17

Try re-pairing your remote as follows:


  • Hold down the Back (<) and Volume Up (+) buttons together for five seconds, then place your remote on top of your Apple TV (if prompted)


This process has fixed this exact same issue for me twice on 2 different Apple TV 4K setups.


Good luck. 🤞
