    Hi rly_exhausted,

    Thanks for posting in the Roku Community!

    I understand that your Roku Mobile app will automatically disable every time you change the input. I will be more than happy to provide more information about this.

    Roku mobile app headphone mode does not support HDMI input or any external device that is connected to your 40" Class Select Series Full HD Smart RokuTV. Once you're done using your external devices like your PlayStation or laptop and get back with your Roku TV program, you have to manually activate again the headphone mode on your Roku mobile app.

    Just wanted to remind you that the remote for your new 40-inch Class Select Series Full HD Smart Roku TV is the Roku Voice Remote. And if you're looking for a remote with a headphone jack, that would be the Roku Voice Remote Pro.

    Hope you'll find this information useful.
