Like Duct Tape said, the remote IR is just for controlling an IR TV.  The remote is Bluetooth so URC isnt going to be able to help much:

Its the same problem I am having with the Tivo Stream 4K.  Its an amazing device but a BT remote.  I did try a Flirc USB dongle via a USB A to C adapter on it but it only partial works (U/D/L/R).

You could try something similar on yours to see if you have any luck.
