There must be a way and I would appreciate knowing how to do this. I should add that my Roku box is old, maybe 15yrs (give or take) so I may need to update the box and the remote for the Roku.

My thanks in advance.

Make sure your HDMI is plugged into the ARC HDMI port. Typically that allows for one remote to control everything. Assuming your device (roku) supports ARC. Alternatively you could go with a good universal remote. I'm not sure how advanced current Rokus have gotten, But I can control everything (TV, Amp/soundbar depending on room, and of course the AppleTV itself) all with my Apple remote. Couldn't be easier.
