This is probably a terrible reply pronator and I'm truly sorry if you or others don't like it at all, but this is what I would do to solve the dilemma of not being able to use my Roku remote because it's charging. I'd buy another one here so that one is always charged and use that one while the other one is charging. Problem solved?
Update: Unless I'm wrong, it appears that the new Roku Voice Remote Pro (2nd edition) doesn't have a headphone jack, so be aware of that if you do go ahead and purchase another one. If this is true, it appears that Roku may be getting rid of the headphone jack on their newer generation remotes. They also removed the two programable buttons on this newest remote. I've read that the quick launch (rocket) button replaces at least one of the program buttons and the guide button can also be reprogramed if you can figure out how to do that.
Removing the headphone jack is not an improvement, it is the removal of a useful feature. I know the first thing people will do is rush to defend this move by saying you can pair bluetooth headphones to your Roku. My response is so what? It would be better if you could do both and you don't need to remove the headphone jack from the remote to also support bluetooth listening.
Those wanting AA battery headphone Roku remote could do searches on ebay for RC-AL9 or RC-EL3 remotes.
