Default Radio station display on instrument panel

Hi all,
I have recently bought an 2018 XC60 my first Volvo.
This is the first vehicle that I have owned where the functions are predominantly controlled from a screen.
I am finding one aspect of the radio annoying however. When the dab radio is selected and playing the logo of the station appears on the instrument panel, fine so far. However if the station looses signal and then reconnects the logo flashes on and off accordingly.
I am then seeing the logo ( red in the case of radio 2) as a fault warning light which distracts me momentarily.
Not exactly a major issue in the scheme of things but I would be interested if there’s a solution.
At the moment I have selected FM to resolve this.
Also. I have not found any way of fully switching off the radio just pausing it.

From memory you can set the channel to default to FM when it looses the DAB signal. It does it for rad 2 & classic FM. it can be a bit disconcerting as the DAB signal is 1-1.5 secs behind the FM signal!
