Roku used to make remotes that had the voice microphone button and also a headphone jack that took two regular double A batteries. I got one of those with my Roku Ultra 4660 that I purchased back in 2017. It is called a Gaming Remote when you pair it to your Roku. It has the volume controls on the right side but no Mute button and it had an A and a B button on the bottom for gaming.
They also made another similar remote that was called Enhanced Voice Remote when you pair it to your Roku. I got one of those sent to me as a replacement by Roku I think in 2020. It also takes two Double A batteries and has the headphone jack. But this one is better because it came with a Mute button along with the volume controls and also a programmable 1 and 2 button on the bottom instead of the gaming A and B buttons.
Apparently Roku doesn't sell these anymore, I don't know why because they were a lot more reliable than the standard voice remotes they make now which take triple A batteries and no longer have the headphone jack. You might be able to find some of these older remotes being sold on ebay or Amazon from sellers who still have them, but they are discontinued by Roku and you can only order the modern ones from the Roku website unfortunately.
Thanks for your reply Emissary. You provided some really good information, but in the end I'm up the creek without a paddle since no new replacement remotes with the old remote's features are being made anymore. If I am unable to find the replacement remote I need, I'll buy a couple of the low end replacement remotes on that women warrior from Brazil website for $8 for a pair of them. Then cannibalize one to get some parts to put in my OEM remote. It is the blue X cross control with the "OK" in the center that is fading, very unreliable. I'll try to remove and replace those parts. On a website I see the specs for each remote's control button must have a lifetime of a minimum of 3000 clicks. Mine has probably had more than ten times that for the left / right controls. It would be nice to post whether I'm successful or not in that endeavor. 50 / 50 chance I'll do that. Enjoy the coming summer !
