Roku Ultra returns to Home Screen after any channel is selected.

This is absolutely ridiculous. My Ultra quits out of any channel after less than a minute. Tried the following solutions;

reboot roku

switch power outlet

try new hdmi cable

try different tv

did a factory reset

bought a new Ultra Roku and tried

NONE OF THESE SOLVE THE PROBLEM!

The only thing that worked was buying a Google Cromecast.

After almost 10 years, I have to say Goodbye Roku.
