iPhone randomly starts playing music

At least once per day, my iPhone 6 randomly starts playing music even when no music apps are active. This is very disruptive. No headphones are attached, but I do have an iWatch that communicates with the iPhone. I believe the culprit is Pandora. Any advice would be much appreciated.

iPhone 6, iOS 8.1.1

[SOLVED]


In my case, it was a blue tooth Speaker that, when I would turn off ( because it was paired with the phone ) would trigger a song to be played (oddly enough it was always the same U2 Song )


The solution was simple, just unpair that device ( you will definitely have some paired devices ).


It has been 4 Weeks with no "autoplay" from the iPhone.
