Guest asrequested Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 I just discovered that when Theater is closed, Alexa will control the volume on my AVR. As soon as I open Theater, volume control reverts back to her own volume. I was just wondering if this is how it's supposed to be? I have nothing to compare it to, so I don't know if this is a bug/desired/no control over? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36992 Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 Sounds like expected behavior to me. Once Theater is closed it is probably a standard alexa function to control your avr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest asrequested Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 That's what I was thinking. The volume is controlled through the Harmony skill. It looks like the emby skill overrides that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angelblue05 4130 Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 (edited) Exit Emby, Quit Emby. If you are still loaded in the emby skill instance then the Emby skill will be the only thing processing what you are saying at the time. Does that work? Let me know.

Guest asrequested Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 (edited) This happens just by starting Theater, and I haven't used any Emby requests. Does the skill load as soon as you start the emby app we've selected as the default device? Edited December 10, 2017 by Doofus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angelblue05 4130 Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 No, the skill does not initiate when you start an app. Alexa and Emby are two separate entities. Anyway, what does Alexa hear you say? I don't understand what you are doing so you'll have to give more details. Are you starting Theater with Alexa?

I wasn't sure if harmony and emby would run concurrently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
