Summary:
Occasionally when I'm switching between listening to Beats 1 and an Overcast podcast, Beats 1 starts when I click my headset play/pause button to pause the podcast. Also, occasionally, Beats 1 will start when my audio source changes from my bluetooth headset to my car.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Pair a bluetooth headset with playback controls (may also work with earbud controls)
2. Start playing Beats 1
3. Open Overcast and start playing a podcast (Beats 1 automatically stops)
4. Click the headset play/pause button to pause a podcast
- or -
4. Get into a car with a previously paired head unit and turn it on and let the phone connect. (may also work with any other additional bluetooth devices)

Expected Results:
Overcast pauses playback (or continues to play on my car)

Actual Results:
Overcast pauses playback and Beats 1 starts (or overcast switches to the car and promptly stops and Beats 1 starts)

Version:
iOS 8.4 (12H143)

Notes:
Forwarding Radar ID and bug report to Marco Arment, the developer of overcast.

Configuration:
iPhone 5s 64GB Verizon on LTE
