Help Music randomly starts?

This is driving me crazy. My phone randomly starts to play music that I have saved to my SD Card. There's no way to stop it and I don't have ANY music apps running. Any idea?

I don't have doubletwist or those other apps that I saw people complaining about. I have to do a battery pull to stop it :(

I have had this happen a couple of times as well... I think I just figured it out. I checked all of my notification sounds and found out that Gmail's notification sound was blank. I must have deleted the previous sound or somehow it was removed. The phone must have been picking a random sound to notify me and the sound happened to be a song.

My fingers are crossed as this woke me up at 4 am this morning and kind of freaked out my wife that music was playing in the house.

Great suggestion! I'll try putting some music on my card and see if I can replicate
