HT-ZF9 turning on TV when casting music from my phone

Hi all, I've had my HT-ZF9 for over 2 years now and have always enjoyed the ability to cast music from my phone (typically DAB radio stations), to the soundbar. 

 

My HT-ZF9 is connected to a Samsung TV via HDMI & whenever I cast music from my phone, it has always been just the soundbar that turns on. That was until yesterday. 

 

I've purchased a new set of Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones & went in to the Bluetooth settings on the soundbar to pair them, which is fine. However, I must have accidentally changed some other setting, as now, when I cast music from my phone to the HT-ZF9, in addition to the soundbar turning on, the TV does too.

 

I've looked back through the settings but can't seem to figure out what I've changed. 

 

I want to go back to how I had this set up, as in no TV turning on when I simply cast music from my phone. 

 

Any ideas how to correct this? 

 

TIA for any responses 👍

If your TV didn't turn on when you turned on the Soundbar, then you may have turned on Control for HDMI (BRAVIA Sync in Sonys).
