Just turn off the CEC. If you really want all of your components turning on and off at the same time get a remote which supports macros.

Although some devices have configurable CEC, like my TV and receiver, I can say that I want input switching, but not power on/off.

Which leads me to say that the optical/coax thing may not work, as powering on the player may cause the receiver to automatically switch to that HDMI input, which would then turn on the TV.
