Voice Remote Pro - programmable buttons question

Just bought a Voice Remote Pro because I wanted to have a couple programmable buttons. My intent was to set one of the buttons to match one from my sound bar remote (Polk MagniFi Mini AX) so I can cycle through the sound modes without having to pick up that remote basically ever again. I can't seem to find any instructions on how to do that and now I'm worrying that this won't be possible. Can anyone give some guidance on this? Thanks!

Re: Voice Remote Pro - programmable buttons question

Sorry, you can't do that.  You can only program the buttons to launch a channel/app.  They're similar to the "Partner" buttons (e.g., Hulu, Netflix, etc), but you get to choose what channel gets launched.

@MattJinGB-

The programmable buttons on the VR Pro can be used to replicate commands you can issue verbally.  If you can't successfully get the Roku to respond to a particular vocal command, you can't then lock it into one of the programmable buttons.
