    iTunes randomly starts playing

    About a week ago, iTunes on my iMac began launching on its own and playing random tracks. Sometimes the music stops itself after 15-20 seconds. Other times, it just keeps playing. This often happens when no one is even in the same room as the computer (so it's not errant keystrokes). Details...

    Easy first. The "random" in title means the smart playlist will limit, say 25 songs, in the playlist, based on "random". In iTunes, everything works fine. But when syncing it to iOS device, that playlist just truncates first 25 songs (assume that smart playlist will filter more than 25 songs...
