Users / Splitting Audio / Video Pipes

I am having trouble properly configuring my a/v pipes, and would really appreciate any suggestions or clarifications. Here is my setup:

In other words, my MD has video going directly to the TV and audio going to the receiver (through the improperly labeled HDMI input - I'm assuming that doesn't make a difference?), while my DVR has audio going to the receiver and video going through the receiver to the TV.
When I choose Live TV from the DVR, the expected Input Select commands are sent:
However, when I select a video from the MD, I get something unexpected:
There is an extra command going to the TV, tuning it to the receiver's input. If I delete the video pipe from receiver to TV, the issue is resolved, so I have to assume that sending the audio to the receiver is for some reason activating that output video pipe. Am I doing something wrong here? Any help is very appreciated!
