   You might want to try the vgencmd thing Russell suggested, but other   
   than that...

   Sorry, I was mixing things up with my own setup here. Basically why I   
   got an HDMI switch although my TV has plenty input is exaxtly the   
   behaviour I described: whatever I turn on makes the switch go to this   
   new source, when I turn it off it goes back to what was playing before.   
   TVs don't do that, (most) switches do and with some switches the   
   behaviour can even be configured. So I have four HDMI devices all   
   connected to the switch and one HDMI cable from the switch to the TV.
