Setup: Beosound Theatre soundbar paired with an LG G6 OLED, integrated via the B&O LG app and the dedicated Ethernet link – the “Beovision Theatre” bundle. Apple TV connected to Theatre HDMI A. Theatre’s eARC HDMI feeds the LG’s HDMI 2. Beoremote One as the supplied remote.
Goal: single-remote operation using the Apple TV Siri remote – press it, both soundbar and panel wake to the Apple TV source. I’m trying to get to a place where the Theatre and LG quietly recede and it just feels like an Apple TV.
Current behaviour: pressing the Apple TV remote wakes the Theatre and routes audio – I can hear the tvOS menu navigation sounds clearly – but the LG panel stays black. To get picture I have to pick up the Beoremote One and manually select HDMI 2 on the TV and HDMI A on the Theatre. After that everything works fine until the next standby cycle, when the same thing happens again.
What I’ve verified: – In the B&O app: HDMI A is set up as a source named “Apple TV” with CEC Enabled, Movie sound mode. – On the LG: SIMPLINK (HDMI-CEC) on, Quick Media Switching on. – On the Apple TV: Settings → Remotes and Devices → Home Theater Control → Control TV and Receiver = on.
Question: is the Theatre supposed to wake the LG panel automatically when CEC activates the HDMI A source, and if so, is there something specific to check on the integration side – Ethernet link, B&O LG app, firmware version – that could be stopping the panel-wake command from propagating? Or is this the LG integration instability others have reported, where the practical answer is a periodic mains cycle?
Happy to add Theatre firmware version, tvOS version, or anything else useful.

BRONZE MemberIn case you a aiming at not using the BROne at all, why not just plug the ATV in to the LG tv directly.
The ethernet cable (between Theatre and the tv) should not be needed at all.Activating CEC on ATV and the tv should be sufficient.
The BS Theatre is – in that case – just a soundbar.Also have a look here:
