On Plex media player for Android TV, a nVidia Shield Android TV 2017 16gb to be precise, Plex have for long (many months) had the problem that:
When pausing a tv show in Plex and Chromecast built-in slideshow kicks in, Plex either play current shows’ soundtrack, or actually continues to play the current media in the background.
Same issue for me. I’ve only noticed it for about a month. Also when you interact with the Shield with the audio of the current paused media playing in the background “An error occurred while attempting from play this video. Please try restarting both the Plex Media Server and this app” appears.
I’ve now experienced this behavior also when pausing a show and then go to the home screen / Android TV launcher. The show soundtrack or audio of current episode suddenly starts playing.
