Hi

I just purchased a universal dock for my iphone (which is rubbish, because the dock is in the way of the home button - and the guy in the apple retail store said they weren't carrying the iphone specific dock anymore because it was on it's way out...?) and whenever I am home the iphone is sitting in the dock. However, when I load up front row - the apple remote inconveniently controls both front row and the iphone. i.e when I select in front row my iphone starts playing songs, and when I go up and down I also lower the volume on the iphone.

This is just the most frustrating thing in the world (well, not really) but I hate the fact that I always have to take my iphone out of the dock if I want to use front row. Does anyone know how to fix this?
