My SB3651-E6 Vizio Sound Bar has been acting up for a while and now I am unable to pair with the SmartCast app, either Android or iOS. However this magical library works just fine!
I use the remote and control the sound bar through the TV most of the time, but one feature that I cannot enable without the app is changing the name of the sound bar which seems to be what enables chromecast functionality, so I can cast audio from any device.
I have looked through the audio and system settings using pyvizio but have not found anything related to the name or enabling cast. Right now the sound bar is plugged to wired network and shows up on SmartCast but when hitting pair I'm asked to press the volume up, and the soundbar never makes the beep sound (it does on pyvizio), and instead just says failed to pair.
Any ideas on how to change name/enable chromecast? Thanks!
