Roku Media Player Autorun/Autoplay

Has anyone successfully gotten Roku Media Player's autorun feature to work?

The feature is described in the Help documentation on my Philips Roku TV and it's described in to documentation online here. I've been experimenting with it for several hours and can't get it working.

I've tried naming the playlist as Autostart.m3u (this is what the online instructions say) and as Autorun.m3u (this is what the Help on the TV says). I can manually start the playlist using the remote and it works fine, but I can't get the autorun to work. If I select the m3u playlist in Roku Media Player it navigates to the media file, but it doesn't play it until I click on it.

I've turned on Auto-launch for Roku Media Player from the System Settings, and I've turn Autorun on in the settings for Roku Media Player.

The playlist seems fine, it's the autorun functionality that I can't get to work.
