Controlling TV Power via HDMI from QIP 62000

I want to control the TV power at the same time as I switch on/off the Fios QIP 6200 set top box.

I can't use the switched outlet on the set top box because the TV (Sony 32S3000) has a 3-prong power plug.

Can I setup the box to switch the TV Power on/off via the HDMI connection ?

According to he Sony manual this should be possible but does not seem to work.
