It was in the luggage compartment. Even if he had thought about it he probably would not.

I wonder if the speaker had built in lithium batteries too.

Devices with built-in batteries are ok for checked bags in the US (though, the temperature swing isn't good for their long term health, and whichever airline you choose may have their own further restriction on that). It's just removable batteries that must be removed.
