Having a weird issue where my phone will just randomly show the "transferring to HomePod" notification and send audio to it when I'm lying in bed at least six feet away from the HomePod. I thought this was meant to happen when you hold the phone near the device? Either way, I'm definitely not telling the audio to transfer to the HomePod, it just does it by itself. Sometimes I'm not even playing anything from my phone but it'll start playing on the HomePod. Once happened when I was watching something that, let's just say, I didn't really want broadcast to the rest of the house.

I'm on an iPhone 8 Plus on iOS 14.2 and the HomePod is fully up to date too.
