It might be worth trying "vcgencmd display_power 0" at that point,
which I think effectively stops the HDMI output, just in case the TV
happens to treat that differently. I sometimes use that with a monitor
to do something similar. (You could try that out without turning off
the Pi of course, and it's "vcgencmd display_power 1" to get the
picture back.)
