Each Channel/app is developed differently. (Roku basically hosts the channels/app, but does not develop them).
I have found though, that in most Channels/app, after you pause, there is normally a remote button you can press to clear the screen. In some cases, it is the Back button, in others it may be one of the Arrow keys.
Some developers assume that when you Pause, it is because you want to get into the Settings, look at program info, or access some feature that is in those text/box overlays. (closed caption, audio, etc).
I understand what you are saying, just realize that it may be different in each channel/app. Some you can clear, some you cannot.
