Hi EPopeney,
Welcome to the Roku Community.
We appreciate you letting us know about the issue you are experiencing and the detailed information you have provided. We'll help you resolves the issue on your Roku devices. Have you tried to remove the batteries from the Roku remote and see if there's any difference? Perhaps, the TV is accidentally opened with the Roku mobile app while trying to use a different app?
Lastly, it was reported performing a system restart resolves the issue. Have you tried to restart your Roku devices? We would recommend doing this from the Settings menu by navigating to Settings > System > Power (If you do not see a Power submenu, skip to the next step.) > System restart.
Thank you for your cooperation. Keep us posted on how it goes.

Yes I have restarted the Roku by both the menu and by removing and restoring power.
Yes I have removed the batteries from the remote and confirmed the Roku app is not open and even had the phone with the Roku app turned off.
The Roku continues to turn on all by itself.
I did NOT have this issue before when I had the “Roku Express (New 2022) HD Streaming Device” connected to the same TV and same HDMI port. The issue started when I upgraded to the Roku Express 4K+.

MaryThere may be some sort of conflict with a nearby device that is triggering either the Roku or your TV's CEC feature.
Try disabling Roku's CEC 1-touch Play. (Settings/System/Control other Devices/1-touch Play).
If the above does not resolve issue, look in your TV's Settings for HDMI CEC (diff. manufactures use diff. names for their HDMI CEC), and disable it completely, or at least disable CEC for the HDMI Input that is being used by the Roku.
The Roku device keeps turning itself on even with the TV CEC setting completely disabled.
I even disconnected the HDMI cable so the only connection the Roku device had was the power connection via the Roku supplied wall USB power source. No Roku applications were installed or open on any phone, no batteries were in the Roku device. It powers itself on no matter what I do, it’s clearly a Roku software defect.
I thought the issue was your Roku kept powering on your TV.
The Roku device will power itself on whenever it connects to internet (updates, network checks, router pings, etc). The only way to turn a Roku completely off is to unplug it from power. Otherwise, it just goes into a sleep mode.
