She should be able to adjust the volume, clarity, background noise, treble, bass, midrange. There's probably also a "custom setting" option, so she can set it all up for the TV, save it to a new setting called "mom's TV" and whenever she's watching a show with you all, she can just press that button and the sound will be audible and clear enough for her.

When she's alone, she can connect to the streaming box.

This is how I do it when hubby and I want to watch a show together.

I think that is only true if you use the bluetooth feature on the streaming box. But, you can buy an external bluetooth transmitter for about $20 on Amazon. It's a small 2-inch device that works great.
