The apple tv "keyboard input" Notice keeps repeat for no reason

I have a new Apple TV 4th Gen running the latest TVOs update 10.1. When I get to a typing screen the "Keyboard Input" comes up properly on my phone. The problem is it also appears on my phone when the Apple TV is not in use, or even turned on. It just happens randomly. I don't even need to be in the same room and as I said, the Apple TV can be in off/sleep mode. It is very distracting. I have not been able to find anything here or other plces on the web so this does not seem to be a common problem. The phone is a 6s Plus with iOs 10.2, also the latest update.

AppleTV 2, tvOS 10.1

When I get the notification. I have checked all my AppleTvs and none of them have been on or awoke, unless they can be awoke and not show they are turned on?

Then it's someone else's Apple TV within BT range.

But I don't want to unpair it. I want to use it.

I just want it to stop sending me meaningless pop-ups that have no resolution every 5 minutes.
