Samsung Sound Bar

I took the time to setup my sound bar and TV, but am running into two annoying problems. Is this just a feature limitation or what?

1) I can control the volume by using the voice commands Xbox Volume Up, Xbox Volume Down. However; "Xbox Mute" has no affect at all. Why can I make it louder or quieter, but can't get it to mute the sound bar?

2) When I say Xbox On, Xbox will turn on and it will turn on my TV, but it will not power up my sound bar. So I have to power it up separately. Maybe this and number one are tied together?

Also, I put the right codes in, the right make and model for the sound bar. I took the sound bar off the wall, got the serial numbers, part numbers, looked everything up online, put it all into the Xbox One which had the right codes in it's own lists.
It seems like this should be working.

Any ideas?

Just add the Sound bar is also Samsung, the MS750 Series 7

 

Can I connect Xbox One directly to a sound bar?

I've conned my X1 to a Samsung sound bar via optical cable. Sounds works well, but no volume control.
