AppleTV Playing Music in Earbuds

Another night in bed,

• AppleTV is off
• earbuds still in ears
• press earbud and random music plays
• start searching the house, turning on and off every apple product in sight (because this is how I unwind for bed these days!)
• finally turn my apple TV back on, exit the show i was previously watching, go to music, library, and hit play again
• to discover that even though my Apple TV is OFF (no white light) and i am reverted back to my Samsung screensaver- Apple music is insidiously playing music through my earbuds

Naturally, i try to delete Apple Music (like i have had to do on every other apple device i own), however there is NO OPTION TO DELETE Apple Music from the Apple TV ….

any other suggestions? someone PLEASE help. I literally just bought this apple tv and am back to square one with the Apple Music autoplay debacle we’re all finding ways to cope with. I thought i was past random music playing in my ears while I’m drifting off to sleep. Thanks in advance!
