Well, that's my working theory so far via observation, I haven't done controlled testing as it's working as I expect. If there is a connection via BT or PC audio host the device see's it as being in use and not idle.I wondered if I was mistaken in how the idle power off works. That makes sense that it is not idling if it is just on pause and still connected. Either way, I will leave it set to "off" and see what happens.
I'd switch auto to Off, but I tend to get interrupted and can't come right back to turn things off, so auto-off is good for me. It takes a moment to turn it back On when I do come back, so that works for me.
Maybe someone will do the methodical testing to see when the BTR5 feels like auto-offing. If there are no apps with app open will the BTR detect Idle? Does low volume or no playback constitute Idle? What is Idle to the BTR5?
