Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT

I recently started to get the Apple TV keyboard prompt on my iPhone repeatedly throughout the day (50 times a day). It used to only happen when i was entering passwords, etc. but now all the time. Any ideas as to why?

I have several (six) Apple TVs in my house (4th generation) and i recently upgraded the software to the newest media OS (where TV replaces the video feature and supports single sign on). Shortly after that upgrade, I started getting the prompt to use Keyboard input (the prompt that usually comes when you have to sign on "Keyboard Input...Enter text on your Apple TV using your IOS keyboard...slide to type". This is a great feature and used to work fine. Now i get that message on my iPhone 6 plus at least 50 times a day when i'm not watching apple tv. It only happens when i'm on my home wireless network, but it also seems to be only on my phone, i haven't noticed it on any iPads but i don't really use them very often. Any suggestions on what may cause this or how i can fix it?
