Remote Control Battery Pop Up

I have an "issue" on my Ultra that has started in the last few days. In the upper right corner of the screen, it pops up the words "Remote Control?" and displays the battery charge. It pops it up there at what appears to be random times. Sometimes its 30 seconds or so apart then it stops for awhile. If I have the voice control button set to off, it starts popping up the "hands free voice is off" message instead. It's very distracting.

How do I fix it?

 

Model: 4802RW - Roku Ultra

SN: X0100015MN8N

Software: 12.5.0  build 4178-C2

Device ID: S0DC2365MN8N

I tried to hit the home button 5 times and then the back button 5 times and it did not work.  I'm unable to find a tracker ID.
