Can't control TV, successfully added though!?

[dfizzo]

Hi - I am struggling to control 2016 Samsung UN65JU6500 model. I ran pair1 and successfully entered PIN and got mute control. And grabbed UUID from the log. The TV shows in HomeKit but I can't control device (power off or volume, etc.). Below is what I am seeing in the log. Any guidance? Much appreciated!

FWIW: HomeKit icon for the TV does correctly show if the device is on/off (as controlled manually via television remote). But cannot control the TV device via HomeKit or co from center remote

I'm having the exact same problem.

Me too! Mine is continuously stuck on muting the TV. Ran in debug mode I get the additional:

[10/13/2022, 3:22:45 AM] [homebridge-samsungtv-control] This plugin slows down Homebridge. The write handler for the characteristic 'Mute' on the accessory 'Samsung TV 806F' didn't respond at all!. Please check that you properly call the callback! See https://homebridge.io/w/JtMGR for more info.
