Yeah I think the PSUs start to get noisy (electrically) and then the IR receiver plays up, in my case, day to day remote use of the Touch is using a Harmony remote (Activity programmed that turns on the Touch, turns on my sound bar and selects the correct input on the sound bar for the Touch, then Harmony remote operates Touch except for volume which is done on the sound bar), the Touch stopped responding to the Harmony hub, but did respond using a Squeezebox remote pointed directly at the Touch. Changed the Touch PSU and it all started working with the Harmony hub as before. Labelled up the old PSU and chucked it in the Squeeze"box" of bits - still powers up the Touch so might do a turn in future troubleshooting! :D Talking of the box of bits, I forgot... I do have a 2nd user Touch in there that the screen is not as bright as my own purchased Touch, no idea of its history as I picked it up on eBay as a spare a while back, no idea if they dim over time but seems odd as Touch was released only a few months before I bought mine, so if longevity of use dims the screen them mine should be suffering.
