There isn't any power settings because the Roku soundbar doesn't have power command. And Fast Tv Start is only on Roku tv's. The power button on the Roku soundbar remote is a tv power button, its not for the soundbar itself. 

If your remote power button isn't turning off the tv anymore, or the home key isn't changing to the soundbar home screen as it once did, I just went through this myself. Try refreshing the cec devices in the settings of the tv menu. Since what's preset to the tv power and volume keys are Roku cec commands, which all tv brands that accept cec commands respond to the same commands that why you don't and can't change the tv brand under programming tv device. Like on other roku models.

Ok great. So it's possible to play music to it when the TV is off without doing anything special?
