I've noticed, and is why I'm here, that the soundbar stays on "welcome" for quite a long time before actually turning on. This is actually causing issues with my Harmony One remote working properly to turn on activities and change devices as it turns on. This soundbar will never start up in time to actually change inputs, so it starts up on whatever input I'd used last. Then when it finally gets past the "Welcome" message, I can finally change inputs. I have been wondering if it's perchance because I don't have it connected to my network and it's trying to search/connect or something before starting up fully (like looking for updates)
