Remote battery info will appear on the screen remote will stop working

I have rebooted the system and I have unpaired and repaired the remote, randomly the remote battery info will appear on the screen and at the same time the remote stops working.  

if I wait a while or remove a battery and put it back in it starts working again.

Post your model, software version, remote model and remote firmware version. Hopefully the engineers at Roku can find a pattern and fix this. It's more than likely a pairing issue-not battery related.
