Turning Off by itself

This device sounds pretty good. However it has a really bad habit of turning off by itself during anything is being watched.
That is really frustrating.

Hello Damon, your sound bar should not turn itself off unless a CEC or remote command is being sent to it. We’d really love the opportunity to have our tech support team run through some troubleshooting steps to see if we can get the sound bar up and running for you. When you have a free moment, they’re available through text message, chat, or over the phone. Just go to support.VIZIO.com and click on ‘Contact Us’.

Contacting Vizio support

The audio is out of sync, the AUX input may not work, and the sub powers off in standby mode and can only be turned back on by pushing the power switch behind the sub. These are all known and ignored issues if you google this soundbar. They have offered to send me a refurbished unit as a replacement. Glad I paid retail for a new one, so they can send me a refurb. I wanted to like it, but I can't recommend it.

Known issue with Vizio yet they refuse to address it. The soundbar just turns itself off at random times regardless of any settings, including eco. When called tech support, they have cookie cutter trouble shooting and will end up offering to send you a new one, and it will do the same thing.
