Music Player starting automatically/randomly

Whenever i plug in my headphones to my phone, the default (built in) music player turns on and a random song will begin to play in the background. I get the music app notification in the notification bar at the top of the screen, and I can pull it down and hit the "x" on the far right to close it out.

Furthermore, I can use either the app manager application that comes on the phone OR the Manage App settings option under settings, either one, to Force Close the music player.

This does no good, as a few minutes later, the music player will come on again and start to randomly play music.

I've had the phone for a long time, probably close to a year, I can't remember exactly how long, and haven't really ever had this problem. Is anyone else having similar problems and if so, was there anything special you did to make it stop?

As far as I know, its not any particular app thats causing it, although I haven't completely deleted every app i have, i have systematically deleted the most recent apps (from when i first noticed the problem) and haven' found a solution.

Thanks for any info.
