You have Roku installed where? On a smart phone? iOS or Android? I use the iOS app and it hasn't affected using a remote on any of my Roku devices.

Find the Source or Input button on your TV's remote and press it to switch between devices.

       Exactly! That's what I do.  Like on my TV- I have to go to HDMI to watch cable and Input 4  to switch to my Roku- and when I do- it switches to an HDMI connection as my Roku is hooked up to an HDMI connection.

We switch from Roku to Cable but when on Cable using its remote, every time we try to press a command it takes us back to the HDMI source for our Roku express. Only thing we can do is unplug power to Roku if we want to watch cable now.  Suggestions?

Try turning off "1-touch control" on your Roku under Settings->System->Control other devices.

I have the same problem. Every time I touch the cable remote to change a station, it switches back to Roku. I have to unplug the Roku to be able to use cable.

That seemed to have worked! Thanks so much. What do I lose by turning off that feature?
