An odd problem with multiple devices and auto play

This is such a niche problem, I'm not sure there's an answer for it but here goes.

The devices involved: Roku Stream Bar, Roku TV, Roku streaming stick.

The Stream Bar and tv are set up together in my living room. The streaming stick I gave to my mom some time ago, before owning the Stream Bar. The TV is a recent addition, the Stream Bar I've had for several years. I kept the Stream Bar because the audio is better than the TV speakers.

I've been having a problem where when I turn on my Roku TV, about 50% of the time it automatically tries to switch over to the Stream Bar. Even if I cancel the action, the Stream Bar starts playing the audio from whatever show my mom last watched on the Roku Channel. Even if she's not even using it at the moment. It won't stop unless I power off my TV.

These two devices have never been connected in any way, and my mom lives about 25 km (15.5 miles) away. It is still connected to my account. I have combed through the settings and I can't seem to find an option that would stop this.

Any suggestions?
