I'd like everything to turn on with a single voice command, but my Sky Stream puck seems to be the only holdout.
The Sony TV, the Xbox, the lights, even my christmas tree, can all be controlled with voice commands. But not the puck.
I understand the Sky Stream puck doesn't directly work with Google (or any assistant for that matter) - I can't imagine why not, but it is what it is.
Is there a simple setup I'm overlooking that would turn on the puck without having to pick up the remote every time?
e.g. Turning on my TV will turn on my sound system through HDMI CEC, is there a way to set up the puck to turn on at the same time?

Possible, yes, ideal no! Connect the Stream device to an IoT plug. It would mean a boot up from scratch though, rather than coming out of standby, so a lengthy procedure and one you quite righty won't want.
