Additional Information

Just a clean installation, no plugins are installed as one of these device (Dell/Toshiba) should only act as a remote control. Because of this bug I can’t turn the device off, without a forced shutdown or starting up a different computer to access it via a browser.

Restarting volumiokiosk.sh makes the system responsive again. As long as I keep the putty shell open. Closing it, then the device will go back to the waiting mode.
