To all the shortcut masters, maybe you can help me out. I have a Homepod stereo pair and an Apple TV in my living room. When I watch a movie I manually set the Homepods to play the audio. Works like a charm. When I'm done, before I turn the Apple TV off again, I set the output back to the TV Speakers (if I don't the Apple TV wakes up the next time I use Siri to play something on the Homepods). So these are the two situations for which I'm trying to create shortcuts.
Now... for days I have been trying to set a shortcut that will wake up my Apple TV (it turns on the TV automatically when it wakes up), turn off the lights and set the Homepod as audio output. Waking up the TV and turning off the lights is working fine, but I can't get the audio change to work. I also tried to have the shortcut play a song on the Apple TV before changing the audio output, but that didn't work either. I was about to give up, but at some point I had a working shortcut, however with that when I turned the TV off again by another "end movie night" shortcut, suddenly my iPhone was playing music...
If anyone here has an idea that would help me, it's highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
