TV turns off when voice searching "replace bathroom sink"

Anyone else have this issue?  When I use my remote to do a voice recognition search for the phrase "replace bathroom sink" my Toshiba tv turns off.  I recently came upon another phrase that turned it off too, but didn't write it down. This makes a great party trick:winking_face:

"Replace kitchen sink" works fine so there's something about the bathroom sink voice recognition doesn't like. This has to be a programming bug.

  • Haha, that’s a wild bug — definitely sounds like a voice recognition glitch in the firmware. Could be a misinterpreted command or a weird keyword conflict causing the TV to power off.

    Out of curiosity, I’ve actually been watching a lot of DIY bathroom content lately while planning my own sink replacement. If you're searching that phrase often, maybe your TV thinks you're serious about it 😄

    I found some solid tips while researching: bathroom remodeling arvada

    Still, I’d recommend checking if there's a firmware update available for your Toshiba — or try resetting the voice control settings if possible. Definitely worth reporting to the manufacturer too. This could be a fun bug to squash.
