In my home media setup (LG UQ81 TV, WiiM Amp via ARC, Xbox Series X, Chromecast with Google TV), the CEC setup _almost_ works perfectly.

* I can use the LG TV’s remote alone to control everything including the Chromecast and amp’s volume controls.

* The amp automatically switches on and off with the TV.

* Turning the Xbox on/off via its controller also turns on/off the TV and the amplifier together.

Mostly good, except sometimes when I have my Chromecast on and switch the Xbox on via the controller it gets stuck in an endless loop of flicking back and forth between HDMI 1 and HDMI 2, between Chromecast and Xbox. Nothing I can do will stop it except to power cycle the TV.

If anyone has experienced anything similar or has any tips on how to debug this that would be much appreciated!
