After setting the new GoogleTV Launcher as default via ADB using the command
adb shell cmd package set-home-activity "com.google.android.apps.tv.launcherx"
on my Android TV Box, checking the default launcher (always via ADB) using two different methods the shell returns a mismatching result as you can see below, and in practice the manufacturer's own launcher (timvision.launcher) always opens as default. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Why aren't you disabling the original launcher?
Or the extreme and completely uninstalling it from main user...
Note, to be safe add/install a third launcher like AOSP Launcher3 or something similar.
