When i´m watching a movie, listening music or any other thing, the apple tv shuts down automatically.

I would like to know if anyone have issues with their apple tv2 when it´s working and suddenly shuts down.
This happens to me repeatedly and don´t know how to solve it.
Please, if anyone can help with this.
Thanks.

Hi, thanks for the reply.
Actually, that's not good enough. What's the point of having a separate audio output if the hdmi is always required?
It's a shame that the AppleTV doesn't do just audio playback, as it seems like a feature that should be present considering that it provides a discrete audio output.
Airport Express is not an option, as I want to have digital audio output and be able to process it with my DAC.
I don't have an A/V receiver, just a stereo integrated amplifier, so I can't connect the HDMI to a receiver like others who had a similar issue. I'll try to "fool" the Apple TV with an HDMI switcher and see if that solves the problem. In the meantime, I found out that my TV (sony) has an option to turn off the backlight, which does the trick, although it's a little annoying to surf the TV menu for that option every time I just want to play some music.
I'm really disappointed by this, and I'm looking forward to a firmware update that fixes this issue (hopefully there will be one)
