LG and CEC to control TV volume
Same thing here. LG G3 wont control volume over CEC. Cannot use IR since I have an LG, Vizio, and Sharp in the same room, and ALL OF THEM use the same IR codes. It worked perfectly on a Hisense ...
Forum Discussion
That was not the issue. I am using the Roku remote. I was trying to use the Roku Remote/Roku CEC option to change the volume on the LG TV instead of IR, but was informed on AVSForum that LG TVs do not support CEC volume control, only passthrough of the CEC command for external sound devices.
So I am out of luck using CEC to change LG volume.
Just for clarity, the reason I need to use CEC is because I have three other TVs in the room and the LG IR volume up command is the same as the one of the other TVs home command, and the second other TVs power off command. I ended up having to block the IR receivers on both the other TVs which do work with the Roku CEC volume commands, so I could use the LG's IR volume control.
Thanks for the help.
Thanks for the added information, Davenlr.
We appreciate you for clarifying.
In this case, have you tried setting it up for a CEC connection under Settings > Remotes & device > Remotes > Set up remote for TV control > CEC setup? If not, we highly recommend so.
Please let us know if this helps.
Thanks,

Yes. It tells me tv is incompatible, use IR.
Both my old Samsung and JVC sets fail the CEC test too. They support Roku's "1-touch play" CEC feature to turn the TV on if necessary and switch to the HDMI input to which the Rokus are connected, but no other CEC options. If volume/mute by CEC isn't built into the TV, there's no way I know of it add it.
Thanks for clarifying, Davenlr.
Could you also confirm which specific Roku device you've plugged into your TV? Also, have you set up the CEC settings before?
Once we confirm which specific device this is, we will coordinate this with the team for further information and provide you with an accurate resolution.

Yes, I am well versed in CEC troubleshooting.
As I have found out from various sources, there is no way to control the volume on this TVs internal speakers via CEC, so it is a TV limitation, not a Roku issue.
