During playback. Triple tap the touch part of your remote.
It’ll disable your remote. [except for exit app button]. Sound will continue to play.
Won’t be able to use your ATV until you close the app in multi task.
Triple tap of touch surface is designed to quickly enable/disable subtitles.

Isn’t the triple tap accessibility shortcut via the Menu button, not the touchpad?
It’s the Menu button according to the accessibility settings but I just tried it and it works with the touchpad too.
Edit: it seems that the touchpad feature works without using the accessibility settings. TIL
Edit 2: my remote continues to function when using it. Does it always stop working for you @“Jammy B” or does it occur occasionally?
Even on Reddit now.
But the subtitle issue is another issue. Where even disabled. I have to choose OFF to remove them from screen.
