soundbar turning on in middle of night

[stuartP]

Have a 6 series Samsung TV and recently added a Samsung HW-S40T soundbar which itself turns on in the middle of the night and loudly announces ‘digital audio connected’. I turn the soundbar off at night and leave the TV on standby. Any clues on how to stop this, please?

I have the same problem , I have to turn the soundbar volume down to zero before switching off at night to avoid this.

Very, very irritating.

I also think there should be a menu option to mute these announcements and have them indicated only by the LED's. 

This would solve the problem.

Samsung , please compile an update containing this feature.

Both the Soundbar and the Frame feel more like intrusions into our home rather than products that serve our needs. The Frame now lives in a closet, and the Soundbar is on a power strip that lets us deprive it of electricity when not in use. What a ridiculous company. Never again.
