Then I realized that the screen was coming back on just because I was using it for the sounds. I need it dark in the room. I put the Tap back in the bedroom. What a relief.
Now, when I use the Show 5 in the living room as bluetooth with my laptop, it keeps announcing when I bring up a new page that it is playing from laptop ________ even if it is not playing anything. I have the original echo in the living room but use mostly now with bluetooth connection to the fire tv. My TV set sound doesn't work with it any more.

Tonight I switched to connecting my laptop via bluetooth to the original Echo speaker and disconnected from the Show 5. (My TV sound started working again, so I could watch fire TV without the Echo via bluetooth). Now the Echo is doing this -- announcing "playing from laptop _____" just like the Show 5 does. Grrrr.
