Asking the bleedingly obvious question - do you have speaker outputs
on the TV?

Every modern TV I've come across does have somewhere

Many don't have *speaker* outputs - although I'd expect a decent one
to have them. Pretty well all have line outputs, though.

Yes indeed - and this appears to be a problem to the OP, because the set's
remote doesn't control the volume (or mute) the line output. Therefore, if
you feed the line out into (say) a hi-fi system, you need a separate means
of controlling the volume.

I guess this is something which most of us learn to live with. When
watching - for example - the last night of the proms, I mute the TV sound
and control the volume with my hi-fi remote - but this does, of course,
require *two* remotes.
