Everytime I open Minecraft on my Switch I have to login to Microsoft account manually

Everytime I reopen the game, I am forced to take out my laptop and login to my microsoft account manually.

If you are going to count this issue as a resolved duplicate, like so many others, then resolve it! Very frustrating!! I have logged in already three times today. 

Microsoft forums say this is a Mojang report. I see posts over a year old with the same issue.
