Power station Remote BT-500 Smart Voice will not work any Vizio tv model. I have the latest version of firmware on the box and remote.

 

Thanks Smiley

You'd be lucky enough if the Vizio remote does not interfere with the buzz box.  They use some of the same IR codes for their remotes, that buzz uses also.  The power button on many vizio remotes is some "number" on the buzz remote.

And what did you expect the remote to do to your Vizio box.  It is paired to the Buzz Box, and I never saw anywhere that any voice controls are expected to work on the TV.  Hell there is even a comment that the voice controls don't even work from the LiveTV/VOD app.  It's pretty much only on the home screen.

Some companies like Vizio and the Roku TVs do not pay for the IR Codes to be included on the manufacturing process of their TVs
All to save about 30 cents per TV

The Smart Remote only works via IR

 

This sounds like that is the issue you're having
