I have a Hue Bridge and Sony TV with a sound bar. Because of the bridge, if I turn on my TV with the bridge connected, the TV refuses to connect to my sound bar. This is a recurring issue that I saw had something to do with Android and the Bridge. I’m not super savvy on the how. Anyway, i know that tech has a use life for everything, and unplugging and replugging my Bridge HDMI into the TV is going to cause something to fail over time, on top of just being a hassle.

Has anyone heard of some sort of dongle, maybe 2 inches long, that can connect to the TV HDMI port that I can connect the Bridge HDMI cord to, that has a manual switch to disconnect the two internally to the dongle? I’d buy this in a heartbeat.
