OKAY.
I may have a working answer on the "Hells Bells" Android phenomenon.
Note, exhibit A:
.
I just did the latest Android update and suddenly it keeps playing music for no reason even when I press stop and close any apps Why? How can I stop this ? Literally hadn't even restarted my phone after the update and some random music playing from SoundCloud lol .. hadn't had chance to even...

Apparently, this is ONLY a thing with Samsung phones. Of which, this is (a 2015 Captivate Glide).
.
From what I'm reading here, many people have been complaining about these old phones suddenly playing random songs in the middle of the night, without anything showing on the display. When they hit the volume, or any other button, it disappears without a trace.
Yes that's right. Almost identical to what happened to me.
.
So how did it play a song from my computer?
Its possible it didn't. If this is right, it may have played a recently downloaded song from my Google account.
As I had the same Google account on the 2015 phone, well. There you go.
By powering it up, it became active... the bug triggered, and it grabbed a recent song my Google account record, I had listened to. From "the cloud". In order for you to download apps on your phone you must be logged into Google Play. Most people on Android are always logged in Google Play, 24/7. And when you're logged into Google Play, it keeps logs of everything you do. For eternity.
And probably, even if you aren't logged in it.
.
But I wasn't logged into Google Play on my PC!
Aha, I think I have the answer to that too. Instead of Google Play, I was logged in my Youtube account, on the PC.
Google owns Youtube.
So their computers who track everything and everyone, must have determined that it is the same person on the PC, as the phone. As it probably also has done with you and yours.
Its getting to be a really small world isn't it? And like my father likes to say, "Google knows more about the inside of my colon than I do."
Well sorry, he said it, I didn't lol.
What does anyone think?
