Wow, what a huge drawback. There has to be a way to fix this with a software update since as stated this didn’t happen with other Roku devices. The streambar shouldn’t care about the input switching from one to the other that it actually reverts back to Home Screen.

It is powered by plugging it in to the wall. The software version is 12.5.5 build 4173-95. The issue is when you are watching any content from the Roku hdmi input (DirecTV stream, YouTube, etc.) as soon as you change the input to view something else, use PlayStation, etc the Roku defaults back to the home page. You should be able to switch inputs without the Roku going back to the main page.
Hi kherren,
Thank you for posting here in the Roku Community!
We will be more than happy to assist you further. You can access the Roku Streambar home screen by touching any button on the remote. Even television power. Put away the streambar remote if you're merely using it for better sound rather than the built-in streamer. Using CEC, your TV volume keys will regulate the streambar volume.
We hope this helps.
Kind regards,
John
