How to control Apple TV app volume on a projector with my iPhone?

When I use the Apple TV.APP on my iPhone, 13 Pro, and play a video on that iPhone which is connected to a projector through an HDMI cable there is no volume control option. If not connected to the projector, I get a volume control on the upper right of the iPhone screen. When I connect to the projector the volume control switches to an icon to silence but I can no longer control the volume. If I set the volume to max and connect to the projector the volume is always reset to the original video volume level. Side iPhone volume buttons also do not change the volume.

This is not about controlling Apple TV volume with your iPhone as a remote which seems to be a frequent question.

SravanKrA, Thanks for your reply. I tried some of the links and they seem to focus on connections and setup. I have that covered. I think there is no answer to this issue because using an older 7S I get the same outcome. In addition, part of my experiment was to raise the volume of the original movie from 35% to 70%. Playing either version sounds the same thru my home projector! So I'm going to put this to bed and hope that the projector in the venue has a volume control! Thanks again for your assistance!
