I've got an Onkyo Receiver (model TX-NR5100) connected to a LG TV (model 75QNED85UQA) using HDMI between the Onkyo Main port and TV HDMI 3 port. The Onkyo is the only HDMI device connected directly to the TV. There is a Direct TV Stream device connected to the Onkyo's Cable Box port via HDMI. Whenever the Direct TV is turned on, the Onkyo Receiver turns on as well as the LG TV. The receiver briefly reports that the Cable Box input is active, and the TV correspondingly reports that HDMI 3 is active. That is the desired result. However after a few seconds the receiver switches to the TV input and the TV then (erroneously) switches to HDMI 2 (where nothing is connected). I then have to manually change the TV input back to HDMI 3. ... How do I get the receiver to stop letting the TV's input override the Cable Box input? I still want to be able to control the receiver's volume from the TV remote, which I assume is working because of HDMI ARC.
