Google Now pops up randomly with 'Listening for Music'. - Moto Z Play Questions & Answers

I have had my Z play for awhile and until recently it will now randomly make that Google assistant sound when you say OK, Google..
When I pull out my phone from my pocket it is on the Google white pop up with a little icon that says Listening for music. This pop up is listening and greyed out from my lock screen. I have to unlock the phone and cancel the listenig
I never setup OK google in the Google app. I use the Moto app and trained my phone to wake to OK Computer.
I can't figure out whats wrong and it will open randomly at work or the movies and that OK google sound is embarassing sometimes.
Any suggestions?

I say ok google and then play artist name.
If my phone has the screen off the music does not start playing. I always need to unlock the screen and the music immediately starts.

Google play music issue

Hi everyone!
Got some weird issues with my Google play music. I'm on Android MM, and every time I start listening to music, and i put my phone into my pocket, after a few mins(it's pretty random) the music stops playing until I move my phone or turn the screen on, press one of the buttons. Did someone encounterd this bug also? Or is there a way to fix it? It's getting pretty annoying.

Customising Assistant on AW2

So now that we have AW2 and you can press and hold for the assistant, this is a real help for when in the car and I want to play some music without pulling the phone out of the pocket. All great, until I installed TuneIn, and now all of the "Play such and such" gets diverted to that app.
How do you customise which App a command in assistant gets opened up with?
Interested in this too, as I've always had the same problem on my phone. I use Google Play Music, but when I use Google Assistant on my phone, it assumes I want to use spotify, which I don't even have an account for. So when I say "play xxx", it just brings up the sign in to account screen for spotify. I have to say "Play xxx on google play music". I also have a Google Home, and the app for that lets you define a default music service. Can't find a similar setting for Assistant. I do have the Google Home app set up on my phone, but the setting in that doesn't carry over to Assistant.

HELP: A few issues with my Galaxy Watch

I was having issues with my Bluetooth headset not automatically activating with my watch when turned on, so unpaired an repaired it. Now, whenever I hang up on a call on my phone (not even using the watch) my watch starts playing music from the spotify app. This only happens if the spotify is set to "stream over wifi". Another fix is to quit the spotify app and turn on then off power saving mode. However if the spotify app is used again the issue comes back. It was fine until I did the Bluetooth repairing. I have uninstalled/reinstalled/ unpaired/repaired etc and this issue won't go away.
I use the running app on the phone. Shortly after I start running a graphic shows on the screen telling me to wear the watch on the outside of my wrist for the HR monitor. I am already doing this and always having to quit the notification which is annoying. It didn't do this when I first got the watch so I am wondering if an update has introduced it.
When playing music while I run (I now use music stored on the watch due to the spotify issue), sometimes it won't continue on with my playlist. It tends to stop after one song so I have to press play. I doesn't always do this. Even worse sometimes it will only play one song which I then have to keep hitting play to repeat. As I'm recording my run I can't exit the app to restart the music from the music app.
I use the voice memo app on the watch which syncs memos with the phone. For some reason when it syncs a memo it plays the notification sound on the phone about 20-30 times, so quickly some of them play over each other. It's like you've just received 20 odd messages all at once and is ridiculous.
While I like the watch overall I wish these issues could be fixed. Does anyone have any suggestions for any fixes?

Ok Google with S9 not working

I've never used the voice activation stuff on a phone before, but I'm getting more interested in using it for navigation, playing songs, podcasts etc. when I'm driving. Works fine if I hold the home button and speak but I want more...
So I've been trying to set up voice match. In the Google app I toggle the switch to switch voice match on and follow the screens until I get to the point when it tells me to Say... 'Ok Google', where it doesn't seem to listen and just sits on that screen. It hasn't crashed; I can back out of it etc.
Am I doing something wrong, or is something wrong somewhere?
