I'm not quite sure what you mean. Do you want CEC to change the volume on the
TV, or use the TV's remote to change the volume of the HDMI audio output of the
omap4?

Anyway, either is supported, but it requires a userspace implementation.

Although TV remote control messages will be mapped to an input device, and if
those are hooked up to the alsa audio volume, then this already works.
