Audio¶
The volume of the TV can be adjusted using the Keypad. It will trigger an automation that will change the volume using CEC. This part is mostly for my kids.
I use mostly my headphones.
The Sound Blaster Recon 3D is used connect the TV to the Douk Audio Mixer MX3 (2-CH) using an optic cable.
The audio mixer is used to mix the audio from the secondary Chromecast with the audio of the TV. I can also adjust their respective volumes.
These two devices are powered on automatically by a Smart Plug when the TV is powered on by any of the automations.
