Hope I am describing this problem correctly.

I have a Bose QC35 headset connected to my TV and my iPhone 7 Plus simultaneously. I am getting audio from the TV (as desired), but if I raise my phone to check the time or a notification, the audio switches automatically to my iPhone (and the TV audio cuts out).

There doesn't even need to be a notification. As long as the screen is triggered (raise to wake). Sometimes, it is even just an accidental bump of the phone.

Is there any way to disable this? I know I can select my audio output on the phone to "iPhone" and disconnect the Bose headset, but I want to keep both connected in case I need to use it on the phone. I just don't want it to trigger every time I turn my screen on.
