This led to my config

media_player:
  - platform: androidtv
    name: Shield
    host: 192.168.0.152
    apps:
      tv.emby.embyatv: "Emby"

      com.google.android.tvlauncher: "Android TV Launcher"
      com.plexapp.android: "Plex"
      com.google.android.youtube.tv: "YouTube"
    state_detection_rules:
      'tv.emby.embyatv':
        - 'playing':
            'wake_lock_size': 3
        - 'standby':

        - 'paused':
            'media_session_state': 2
            'wake_lock_size': 1
        - 'standby':
            'wake_lock_size': 1
      'com.google.android.youtube.tv':
        - 'playing':
            'media_session_state': 3
            'wake_lock_size': 3
        - 'paused':
            'media_session_state': 2
            'wake_lock_size': 1
        - 'standby':
            'media_session_state': 0
            'wake_lock_size': 1

I haven’t tested thoroughly but it worked with a brief run-through. I’ll follow up if I notice any issues.
