Research direction

Reproduce on Android TV with an Nvidia Shield Pro by playing a movie or episode, waiting for the controls to disappear, and pressing the remote's pause+play button. Trace the handling of that remote input when player controls are hidden; done means the video pauses consistently, as it does when controls are visible.
