My smart phone can't turn my tv off without turning my Roku

My smart phone can't turn off my tv without turning off my Roku Express 4k.  Just had an Android update.

Re: My smart phone can't turn my tv off without turning my Roku

Roku operating system version 10.5 added a new "Power" item in the "Settings > System" menu for some of the latest Roku models. In my estimation, these power management options weren't very well thought out.  If this is the cause of your problem, it has been reported that pressing the Roku remote's Home key should bring your Roku to life. 

If you have a "Settings > System > Power" menu item, under "Auto power savings" see if deactivating "After 20 minutes of no interaction" keeps the Roku from shutting down.
