Visio soundbar keeps turning off

We have a Vizio soundbar that turns off randomly. Is there a way to externally shield it from wayward remote signals to see if that's the cause? This happens even when none of the remotes in the house are in use and at hours I doubt there is much remote activity in the neighborhood.

My Vizio tv does the same thing.

Never again.

Have you upset your neighbor lately? LOL

Honestly, I know of no way to shield the devices. I had a Vizio that did the same thing...one I bought at Walmart. After less than a month, I took it back and bought one better from Best Buy, that gave me no problems.

These things are designed to accept interference from other devices. If it came from Walmart, then it was designed to accept even more due to the cheaper quality of the electronics.

I had similar problems with a Vizio sound bar. The only successful fix involved buying a Sonos sound bar.
