My mac book plays music from itunes/ spotify while asleep. Anyone have an idea?

It also will play audio from any open windows in my browser. The mac book will be in sleep mode and shut, the audio from what ever will just start playing. Not right away just randomly. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

If it's playing music, it's not asleep.

Test after each of the following steps that you haven’t already tried:

Step 1

Take all the applicable steps suggested in this support article. That's the starting point for any further effort to solve the problem. Skipping any of those steps may mean that the problem won't be solved.

Note that, as stated in the article, the computer will not sleep if some sharing services are enabled. From the menu bar, select

 ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Sharing

Turn off all sharing services.

Step 2

Select

 ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Accessibility ▹ Speakable Items: Off

Step 3

Select

 ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Bluetooth ▹ Advanced...

and uncheck both boxes marked

Step 4

In the Printers & Scanners preference pane, delete any duplicate printers.
