Roku Soundbar Bluetooth Question

I looking to purchase one of the Roku Soundbar options.  I know this is an odd question, but is there an option to disable Bluetooth on the soundbars?  I do not want the feature always on in the background and would like to know if there is an option to disable in the settings.  Thanks.

    Hey Lankshire,

    Thank you for your interest in the Roku TV Wireless soundbar. Unfortunately, the soundbars are connected to the Roku TV via Bluetooth, and there is no option to disable Bluetooth on them. For more details on its features, visit here.

    I hope this helps!

    Thanks,

      Thank you for the response.

      I was interested at the Roku Streambar SE which connects to the TV via the wired HDMI ARC port.  Since I will not need any Bluetooth connectivity, I was hoping that there was an option in the settings menu to disable the Bluetooth function.  Is there no way to disable this feature if it will not be used?

        Hey Lankshire 

        Thanks for keeping us updated!

        The Roku Streambar SE connects via a wired HDMI ARC port. This means the  Bluetooth feature automatically turns off when not in use. Click here for more information.
