Mdoyle - I don't know what year model RV you have...but mine is a 2018.
I have 3 sets of OEM speakers.
I have buttons on the stereo head unit "A" "B" or "C"...click on screen shot below.
I have removed the OEM living room speakers from my TV sound function and have a Bose Solo sound bar sitting behind the TV.
The living room speakers are still used for the radio or CD palyer (or bluetooth music).
I put labels on the head unit so I would remember which button controls what speakers. The OEM speakers are not the best...they work for me just fine. My "audiophile" days are far behind me...just grateful that I can still hear in both ears after a being subjected to abuse by loud music in my youth.

In order to get my outside speakers to work, I have to have the settings on ARC. This is a television setting. BUT, the outside speakers are so poor, we never use them.

Actually, the entire sound system is very, very poor, and the television is a Furrion television. It is NOT a smart television with internet capability.

We choose to simply get a small Roku $88 smart television. One for the bed room and one for the living room and an external sound bar with the Bass and the tweeters. It's marvelous.... and we get all those streaming channels.

The television works as a second monitor for our computers AND it can be taken outside easily. Take the sound bar outside and the Bass speaker and it "CAN" blast the campground out! (We don't, but it could).

To each their own. That was our solution!

I opted not to have a TV in the bedroom. I did replace the living room TV with an LG smart TV and added google TV. I installed an optical to RCA converter. Took the optical out from the TV to the converter, RCA out from the converter to the TV2 input on the receiver. Sub out from the receiver to the Sony soundbar. When I turn on the TV I get sound through the receiver speakers on zone 1 and/or 2 and through the sound bar. It sounds great. I also installed a Sony TV in the basement so I can have sports or a movie streaming on both and utilize the zone 2 speakers. The next upgrade will be the zone 2 speakers.

My Montana has the Jensen JWM70A receiver. I also have a Dish “Wally” receiver. I couldn’t get sufficient volume from the Jensen TV. Some quick research showed the JWM70A has a “rear auxiliary” input for left and right audio using standard RCA jacks located on the back of the receiver. Besides the HDMI output the “Wally” also has left and right audio out jacks. I connected the Wally audio out jacks to the Jensen “rear auxiliary” in jacks and now I get more than enough volume through the front speakers by selecting “rear auxiliary” with the 70A’s Mode Selector when watching the Wally.
