iPad - spontaneous music playing
My iPad starts. Playing the song “By the Sea” spontaneously, even when I have left it on my desk and am nowhere near it. I have it in a Bluetooth keyboard-case, but it is not in motion or anything.
iPad, iPadOS 14

Hey romilly80,
We understand your iPad is unexpectedly playing a song while not in use.
To make sure we're on the same page, are you referring to the built in iOS ringtone "By the Seaside" or a different song by a music artist?
If it is the ringtone, do you have other Apple devices signed into the same Apple ID? If so, does anything happen on those devices at the same relative time? Such as a call or text coming in, etc? As that may be expected behavior if you have iPhone Cellular Calls set up:
If those steps do not help clarify what is happening, let us know and we'll continue from there.
Cheers!
