More fixes for TV inputs, and a couple of home-screen touches.

  • Fixed: opening a TV input now stops sound from other apps, the way Amazon's own input viewer does. A short sound over it, such as Alexa answering, briefly lowers the input instead of talking over it.
  • Fixed: the screen no longer goes to the screensaver while a TV input is showing a picture. A game controller or a disc player's remote does not count as activity to the TV, so the screensaver used to start mid-game. Reported by Reaper8351.
  • Fixed: pressing the volume buttons in the moment after Home no longer makes Amazon's home screen flash up.
  • Fixed: on the home screen, pressing left on the first tile of a row, or the large Live TV tile, no longer jumps down to another row.
  • The navigation "click" now plays when moving along the inputs and non-TV rows, like it already did on the app grid.

Tested on an Insignia Fire TV Edition (Fire OS 7) with a game console on HDMI.
