Thanks all for the feedback. I figured out a temporary fix. It was really simple and I just glossed over it. I turned off Hand Off in the General Settings on both the iPhone and iPad. Now I can play music on whichever device and not trigger the other. I don't see myself using Hand Off at this point

The VoiceOver settings on your iPhone and iPad are completely separate. You can change them on one device and they won't change on the other.

Are you using the two finger double tap to hang up on your call? If so, I suspect the call has already been disconnected when you use the two finger double tap, so the "magic tap" is playing your music since there's no call to hang up. Hopefully others have a better solution, but I'm just a bit
