Bluetooth mini-amplifier (for passive speakers) with AVRCP?

I own a new Roku TV as well as a pair of older (but nice) Sony passive speakers. To connect them, I bought an inexpensive Nobsound NS-01G Bluetooth mini-amplifier. The arrangement works well in some ways, but there is a key shortcoming, that the Roku TV suppresses its own control of audio volume and mute when connected to the Nobsound. Taking other people's word for it a bit, I gather that the issue is that the Roku TV requires AVRCP for volume/mute control (i.e., it refuses to do double volume control), while the Nobsound does not support AVRCP. I have another pair of active speakers that do lend volume/mute control to the Roku TV, but for other reasons they are not what I want for the TV.

If I have all of this right, can anyone here point me to a Bluetooth mini-amplifier model for passive speakers that supports AVRCP? I would prefer not to cycle through a lot of product returns to figure this one out. For one thing, at the moment I am looking at a Pyle PFA330BT. If anyone happens to have that model, does it have AVRCP support; or otherwise can you change the volume through a Roku TV?
