Apple TV turns on randomly after tvOS 10.2 update?

I have a 4th-gen Apple TV that had no issues prior to the tvOS 10.2 update. Now, the Apple TV will turn on randomly (and thereby also turning on the TV in the bedroom) throughout the day/night and shows an error message that says, "This AirPlay connection requires iOS 7.1 or later" and it goes on to list some other requirements. I am not attempting to use AirPlay at all when this happens. I have tried restarting the Apple TV, signing out and back in to iCloud and it still happens.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

PLEX is a client-server setup. Your iOS devices run the client, and that requires a Plex Media Server.
