This won't help you for this year, and I may sound like I am harping on this, but my team chose to use a hardware selector switch instead of relying on SmartDashboard or other software solutions, for precisely this reason. The drive team appreciated having physical feedback to know exactly what the robot would do. An option to consider for the future.
There is no tomorrow. We will most definitely implement a Dashboard feed back to tell us if autonomousCommand != null before completing the field connected. Weather with a senableChooser or hardware. An issue I will have is trying to test the conditions at home. We had never experience the issue when at home wifi or tethered. The biggest issue I have now with our last autonomous command code there was no selector. In code it was what it was

Code:
autonomousCommand = new Auto_02_underLowbarScoreLowGoal();
