We literally live on the lanai and are lucky 'cause the neighbors around us are either gone or don't spend time outside like we do. So far so good.

It may be how you've positioned the TV as well, and how close your neighbors are. It nice that you have an enclosed lanai, which will cut down on sound.
When we first moved in we had neighbors with a tv on their lanai which was pointed right at our lanai. We didn't spend time on our lanai because we didn't like listening to their tv. I could hear it as though it was in my own living room. Finally we went over and told them how loud and annoying it was, and asked if they'd mind using headphones. They graciously, did, problem solved! I don't think they had any idea that people could hear it, and they just assumed we weren't bothered because we weren't out there.
