Apple TV HD no longer sleeps tvOS 14.0.1

After updating my Apple TV HD Before Apple TV (4th generation) to tvOS 14.0.1, the device no longer sleeps, it turns off and on again. Any solution? Thank you

Apple TV HD, tvOS 14

Do you mean you can’t get it to sleep manually or it’s not going to sleep after the time you set up in settings?

Do you have a HomePod? My HomePods kept turning my apple tv on after the new update. Happened if I asked them to play music. See if it coincides with some other action you’re taking,


Otherwise try restarting it from settings or unplug it for a couple of minutes

I can't make it go to sleep manually, nor does it automatically fall asleep after the time I set in the settings. I don't have HomePod, I just operate it with the remote and my iphone. I kept it unplugged for hours and it stays the same. Before with the tvOS 13.4.8 version, this did not happen to me. I am waiting for a new update that will solve the problem
