On my Hisense U6G Android TV (Android 9 / Google ver 4.22.1.20211108.2_cl_x_22.1.3), Syncler appears in the "Searchable Apps" menu within google assistant. When the app is running this works properly. When the app is terminated (or not running after device restart) the toggle switch within "searchable apps" becomes disabled.
Syncler will not be searchable by voice (google assistant) until the user realizes it's disabled within android TV settings, and turns it back on
I've tried: Rolling back google assistant (much worse functionality overall), Clearing data for google assistant, Clearing data for Syncler, reinstalling Syncler from both playstore & apk sources, running Syncler in high-priority mode, removing Syncler from android energy optimization. Currently looking for an app that will autostart syncler after device restart as a workaround, unfortunately I've not found success.

I have not seen this issue with other apps, including Plex or SmartTubeNext. Some users on reddit share the experience: https://www.reddit.com/r/SynclerApp/comments/s55q58/syncler_disabled_in_searchable_apps/
