I just got my fourth generation Apple TV upgraded to the latest version of
tvOS. It has that new feature where you were supposed to be able to send the
audio from VoiceOver to somewhere other than where the audio from the Apple TV
program goes. This feature is absolutely not working here. I paired the Apple
TV with a Bluetooth speaker. Everything goes there. VoiceOver goes there. Apple
TV programming goes there instead of to our sound bar. There is no way to split
it off, so that the audio from VoiceOver stays on the Bluetooth, but the audio
from the TV goes back to the sound bar. In that audio routing thing in the
voiceover area, if the Bluetooth speaker is paired, it is the only setting. You
can set voiceover anywhere else. And with that sent there, if you go into the
audio video and try to send audio back to the television, everything goes
there. And then the Bluetooth connection is lost for voiceover. If there are
instructions on some specific order of how you have to do this, I would
certainly love it. I have been looking forward to this feature for months,
because my AppleTV voiceover is basically unusable when sent through our sound
bar, because so much of VoiceOver gets cut off. It goes great through the
Bluetooth speaker. But we don't want program audio going there too.
