I'm also a member of this club, buying batteries. They last about 10 days, and I carefully turn off the television at a power strip when I'm done with it, daily. The Roku is only powered from the TV USB port(s).

Steps to reproduce problem? None. It happens constantly.
So I accidentally fixed the issue. One night as my girlfriend and I chilled on the couch, the remote was kicked into a large glass of water. After drying it in rice for 3 days, I put in the same batteries and tried it out. Not only did the remote still work the same as before, it no longer eats batteries. It has the same batteries in it as when it fell in the water and it's still working like a dream. No issues anymore.
