Why does my iPhone randomly play Apple Music by itself?

This is strange—my iPhone randomly plays music out of nowhere, even when I haven’t opened any apps. I checked online for solutions, but the answers weren’t helpful. A bunch of my friends are dealing with the same issue. I’m not sure what to do, and it’s definitely not the Bluetooth problem everyone keeps mentioning. Any ideas?

Could you please try to think of specific circumstances when the issue mentioned above tends to be happening, if there are any? As you already sorted out, but I ask again anyway, apps opened, external devices connected, actions being performed, or anything similar?
