"Looks like you're listening on another device"

Question

"Looks like you're listening on another device"

My iPhone 6 Plus regularly displays the message "looks like you're listening on another device" and pauses the music while I'm playing music through a Definitive Technology bluetooth speaker while connected to wifi at work. The problem also occurs, albeit less frequently, when using AirPlay and AppleTV while connected to my home wifi. The problem happens whether or not the phone is connected to power. Any suggestions for correcting the issue is appreciated. Thanks.

iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 9.0.2

Turn off other devices that are using Bluetooth or Airplay.

Thank you, Lawrence. There are no other bluetooth devices in my office. I checked my bluetooth settings, and D. Cube (the speaker) and "Radio" show up, although "Radio" is "Not Connected." I have no idea what "Radio." It may have been from a rental car I had several weeks ago, but I recall having the issue before and after using the rental car.

There is another device connected to the D. Cube. Maybe someone else's phone. Try rebooting the D. Cube by removing all power for a few seconds.

Thank you, again, for the suggestion. I will give it a try. I will need to drain the battery on the Cube for a reboot.
