Is this also true for RAID5/6?

This issue has its own wiki page on the BTRFS wiki:

So, no, that particular issue hasn't been fixed.

That’s unfortunate. Does the scrub run automatically in those situations? Consumer hardware will be the most prone to intermittent power failure.

There are some big caveats there. https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/RAID56
