Philip Christensen The answer is at 2:45 (Note) . You probably can't turn it on because your TV is connected with an Ethernet cable. Only via WiFi connection, you can turn the TV on from Google Home.

I used to turn on my TV via Google home even outside my house, but after an update it doesn't turn on anymore (sure it works for turning off, but after a while in stand by you can't turn it on again) even in the smart things apps which is lame because the TV doesn't have a wake up mode so not even through smart things you can't set a routine to turn the TV on every morning, Samsung forums are full of this complains and apparently no efforts to solve this problem.

The main problem about smart TVs power state is that, it's not synced with google home's application power state. As for example if your TV is powered off by default, and you said "Hey Google, Nite Nite", google will send a signal "Toggle power" to the TV resulting the TV to toggle it's power state from OFF to ON. I hope everyone here have a nice solution to detect the TV's power state before it executes or send the toggle power command to the TV, I've heard about IFTTT could be a good idea, like for example IF TV is OFF then don't send toggle power, and say back "TV is already turned off", IF TV is ON then send toggle power and say back "turning off TV". and this commands is registered to a phrase "Hey Google, turn off the TV"
