In this case, you're testing in the wrong place again.

Again, no need for the variable "down" - you don't use it.

tv.volume is always going to be less than tv.volume_lowboundary unless
set via calling tv.volume = <some_value> externally.

Note you haven't got any error catching. What happens if I enter "mouse"?

Here you need an elif clause, checking if down is too low, for example,
elif tv.volume - down >1:
