There's an option in system settings to use wired communications; if you don't enable that, plugging it in just does charge and play. (OTOH, apparently if you use it in wired mode, amiibo scanning is disabled, if that's relevant to you)

You are a legend! Thank you for mentioning it because I was not aware of it. I have enabled it now and will give it a try next time.

I was wondering about because there is no indication whether wired mode is even used.
