Remote Controlled Source Switch

Hi guys,

I've got my TV hooked up to the hi-fi in my living room. When I want to use Alex to play music I have to unplug the 3.5 mm jack from the TV and put it into Alex (*snigger*).

I've got the same sort of set up in our bedroom, except the speakers are normally connected to Alexa instead of the TV.

Anyone know of a remote, or at worst manual, switch that would enable me to switch the audio source so I can use the speakers with whichever without having to fiddle around with the back of the TV?

Thanks in advance,

Do a search for 3.5mm switchable splitter, there may be some remote ones in the list (‾◡◝)

Thanks for the tip. Fortunately, the back of the TV is very accessible so it's not a big deal, just annoying.
