Roku remote only works when you switch batteries around

I know this sounds crazy but my Roku remote will power on the tv and the Roku stick and that’s it. Once on the Roku Home Screen, the remote is unresponsive UNTIL I SWITCH THE BATTERIES AROUND! Then it works fine. The batteries are new so I know it isn’t that they are dead. Does anyone else have this issue or a fix?
