When the Roku goes to screensaver, whatever button you press to wake it up, that function is carried out. Can you make it so that the function of the first button press, regardless of which button used just exits screensaver and nothing more? With the screensaver on, there's no telling what state the player is in so you don't know what the button you press to exit screensaver might do. Then the next time the user presses a button, that's what gets done.
That's been my experience with most other remote controlled devices with a screensaver.
Related to this, my Roku Streaming Stick+ was on screensaver in YouTube channel at a video selection page and when I hit the OK button, I got a blank screen but the audio was working. Had to exit play then play again to get the picture to come up. If the first press only wakes the stick and restores the screen, it would give the stick a chance to be ready for the user's next command.
