Feature Request: Simplify Plugin Setup #65

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe: Often when a user configures the plugin it doesn't show any Inputs because the TV wasn't online yet, and the plugin couldn't grab the state. You then need to turn on the TV and refresh the home app 1 or 2 times.

Describe the solution you'd like: Two possible solutions:

I agree, @LeLunZ ! But perhaps, let's make sure we don't blast people ears while doing so: I can imagine that if, for any reason, your Homebridge instance restarts at 2am, you don't want your TV to turn on and start playing whatever late TV show is airing at that time 😃

Perhaps we can turn it on and immediately set the volume to 0?
