Kobo Aura won't wake up after autoshutdown

Hi, I have just configured my kobo aura to automatically turn off after 60 minutes of inactivity. The problem is that after it has been powered off automatically, i cannot turn it on using the sliding button on top, and i have to plug it to a computer or charger for it to wake up.

Is this normal? What could be causing this? I have the latest firmware with no modifications.

That sounds like the switch isn't working. Does it work to put the device to sleep and wake it?

i can't believe i never tried that. It is NOT working. I had'nt used it in a LONG time as I have one of those covers that automatically wake the device up. Guess i'll have to open it and try to fix that button

Thanks!

edit: just a little pressure on the front and back of the device where the button sits and its works properly, in case anyone runs into the same issue.
