This looks to have been a conscious design decision:-

I can't fathom the design logic.

My inclination is that the menu option "switch off <player>" should
only appear when the device (Touch or Radio) is controlling a renote
player (not itself), i.e. the device is acting as a controller.

The Radio has odder behaviour when controlling anotherplayer: short
press on standby switches off the remote player and leaves radio
playing with standby screen saver. long press leaves remote player
playing and switches off and powers down Radio.

The on-device 'standby' button, whether soft (touch) or hard (radio)
should probably have different functionality when controlling a remote
player. Giving options between 
"switch off <remote player> and choose this <physical device>"
"switch off this <physical device>"
"switch off both <remote player> and <physical device>".

does that make sense?
