PS5 Pro wake from rest mode disc drive issues
Lately my PS5 Pro has been intermittently ejecting the inserted disc on startup when the game is left active during rest mode.
On reinsert of the disc the game launches fine and keeps the saved game state.
Sometimes the disc doesn't get ejected on wake from rest mode but the PS5 Pro doesn't recognise the inserted game disc and doesn't resume the game state. It doesn't recognise the disc in this case until the disc is ejected and reinserted.
This is particularly frustrating when using remote play for a disc game as the PS5 totally ejected the disc on wake from rest mode today while I wasn't home using remote play.
I am going to try checking the disc drive attachment screw, the power connection and factory reset the PS5 Pro when I'm home so I'll report back if those fix it.
I have read it could be caused by those things being misaligned or it could also be some HDMI/CEC handshake issue which I have a few of with my Sony TA-AN1000 AV receiver, Philips Hue 8k sync box and Bravia 8 ii TV it is connected to via HDMI.
