Keith,
Yes, If you have a VGA "Y" cable in that cable mix, it would be pulling
the ACC pin 8 to ground. That is the signal for K3 Power On - pulling
it to ground will automatically send a Power On signal to the K3.
You need a "Y" cable that has all 15 pins connected, each independent of
each other. A VGA "Y" cable will not work because it has pins 6, 7, and
8 connected together.
