Nintendo Switch on HDMI Switcher

nintendo-switch

I have a NintendoSwitch on an HDMI switcher with other things (WiiU, Playstation, etc.)

It's annoying because sometimes, the Switch, when docked, will 'ping' the HDMI Switcher, switching the HDMI ouput to the switch while you are in a epic MGS5 fight.

Is there a way to stop it from doing that? Right now our solution is to leave it out of the dock, but that makes it out of battery when we want to go out with it.

So is there a way to prevent that HDMI Ping while the Switch is docked?
