How to change tvOS system volume

Question

On iOS we can use MPVolumeView to change the system volume but it's not available on tvOS.

Is there any API that allows us to change tvOS' system volume?

We're building a hardware controller that features a rotating wheel our users want to use to change volume on Apple TV — Lars Blumberg, Sep 10 '16 at 18:09

The best I found was according to an apple dev. q&a concerning master volumes Every device may not support master volume control or individual channel control however you should be able to use coreAudio as supported in tvOS
