Invoke google assistant using only voice and not button on remote

I have set up a ifttt recipe that when I say to my Google home mini or assistant on my phone "ok Google use voice" it sends a webhooks url to tasker plugin join on my sony tv that will open the Google assistant on the tv without having to press the button on the remote I can then tell the assistant to change the channel on my virgin box using the ir blaster or any other local command the tv recognizes I found my google home wouldn't execute change channel commands on the tv no matter how I said it. This works most of the time but occasionally assistant doesn't listen for a command and gets stuck with the assistant bar a the bottom not going away. Does anyone have any ideas how to improve this? Thanks

Hi Jim,

 

Can you let me know the full model of your TV?

 

Best wishes,

Sean
