Hello, all.
I have a Raspberry 2 OSMC box that has worked flawessly since I built it a couple of years ago. Updates have been maintained.
I opted to try enabling remote control via CEC (have been using the Android KORE app), but I have had no success.
My setup is a brand new Vizio M558-G1 televsion with a Pioneer Elite VSX-LX102 AVR. I have enabled CEC on the Pioneer and the Visio, and when I perform a “Device Discovery” within the CEC menu of the TV, the “Kodi” device apepars in the list. So, to the extent I can discover, it appears that HDMI-CEC communication between the TV, through the AVR, and the OSMC box is working; however, no remote keypresses from the VISIO remote work at all. The Vizio TV has a built-in flavor of Chromecast (called Smartcast), as does the Pioneer AVR (audio only).
I have uploaded system logs per the support guidance and have the following pastebin link for review, but I Fear they wil show no activity across CEC:

I have ensured that CEC is enabled in the Input->Peripherals section, and rebooted both soft (console command to reboot) plus a hard power-down and restart. Each time, I verified that the proper CEC device was shown in Input->Peripherals.
What have I attempted so far (none of which have had any effect):
- Within the /usr/share/kodi/system/peripherals.xml file, I have changed the device_type from 1 to 4
- Enabled setting the device active on startup
I have tried to monitor activity on the CEC via cec_client, but see no activity in the monitor while pressing buttons on the Vizio remote.
Should I change or remove any notion of configured remotes?
At this point, despite the appearance of KODI in the TV’s CEC scan menu, I see no evidence that CEC commands are being sent to the device. I would appreciate any suggestions toward resolving the issue. I have a nearly identical OSMC setup against an older Insignia TV in our bedroom and CEC works almost flawlessly from there.
Thanks in advance.
