I tested all of this and it seemed to work well. Of course some of it I cannot attest to because I did not observe the problems before. I do have one question: My AVP has a default On volume of -30. My Quick Select for the Touch is set to -40. When my device powers on it always sets to -30 no matter what the player or QS setting is. Do you find the same on your AVR?
