Phonak hijacking music

My Phonak Infinio 90’s basically work fine. They are less than one year old. I’ve of my passions is listening to music on my Marantz, WiiM Ultra system with high end speakers. They are wired. Lately for some random reason, the sound actively and abruptly switches to some signal, I can only assume Bluetooth, to my Phonaks and it is LOUD and extremely startling and annoying. This happens even if my Bluetooth is turned off on my iPhone and iPad. I have tried everything and have exhausted attempts at solving with Gemini and ChatGPT AI. Does anyone have an idea as to why this is happening snd how to stop. In the past I have tried Bluetooth connections using Phonaks to all my equipment but did not like it and turned them off (I THINK)>

Yes it does and it is off. I believe I solved this issue. My WiiM serves as an external preamp as well as a streamer and it has Bluetooth. Early with my Phonaks I tested the relationship to stream from it to my Phonaks. It did, but I did not like the harshness so I did not do that anymore. But apparently the Phonaks got “registered” in the WiiM ecosystem and even though not using it resided. WiiM apparently keeps tracking output devices and that apparently was randomly switching. I was going to through the sweetness in it and found a page which showed my Bluetooth settings and it asked me if I wanted to forget this device, I had not seen this option previously. I adverted affirmatively and it removed the active Phonaks. Problem has not repeated so I think I got it. Thanks for asking
