[misleading headline?] Nvidia Shield is getting Auro 3D audio support, full-screen ads (www.flatpanelshd.com)

EDIT:

So according to this thread, this is a Google related change and not Nvidia?

In which case, similar to the banner issue from a previous update, you can get a different launcher (see comments for FLauncher) to avoid it

Sorry, you say casting doesn't really work well. Does it work at all from Android? We use that pretty heavily in our home. I guess the TV does have the Chromecast built in, so we could still use it.

I'm not in the Apple ecosystem at all, so I don't know if it is a viable choice. I guess I trust Apple not to put ads on everything, so it might be an option.

To my knowledge no but it wouldn’t surprise me if someone found a way to do it. It’s just that chromecast/Google TVs is a lot more friendly and open. You can cast iOS or android.
