New box...same old problem.
New box is a TELUSTV-24S...old one was -21T. My other (2) boxes are also 21T's.
Interesting observation:
The secondary profile was initially a "blue" butterfly icon. When I set up the new 24S box and when I factory reset the 21T's I chose a "green" butterfly icon.
When initially setup (24S) or subsequently doing a factory reset (21T's) or doing restarts to resolve the issue (no matter which of the boxes) it defaults to the old "blue" butterfly icon under Settings on the Home Screen (really odd!) Yet, when you press Settings it shows the main profile icon and the new "green" butterfly.
However, to get main profile you still have to select the secondary "green" butterfly, then go to Home/Settings again then "green has replaced blue" butterfly, and repeat selection to finally load the main profile.
That said, stands to reason by process of deduction....it's, a behind the scenes, system issue.

Thanks for the update Optikal_Speak - we will share this with the team
Issue may have been resolved.
Haven't seen anyone in Neighborhood experiencing similar so I decided to do another factory reset, sequentially over the weekend, on all (3) boxes...(2) 21T's and (1) new 24S.
The profiles have been holding and working normally when boxes are powered down or gone to sleep. 🤞
Guess the operative words are "may have"...been resolved.
"Head fake" more appropriate.
Issue is back with an added wrinkle...the new 24S box now loads Netflix when initially powered up. When you go into Netflix account the normal exit route does NOT let you exit, you need to go to Guide which subsequently takes you to the profiles. When I select main profile, the Home screen loads the old "blue" butterfly icon for the Secondary profile that was deleted (weeks ago) and now set as a "green" butterfly, then the back-and-forth process begins to finally get to Main profile on Home screen. You know the drill by now.
Suffice to say...I give up!
Time to see if other providers charge as much for same or different headaches.
So much for forward progress in this so called "new digital age"!
