When I'm using my iPhone 5s (latest iOS release) and it's on speaker, after about 10 or 15 minutes, the speaker button lights up as though I've touched it and the iPhone reverts to iPhone speaker. This problem has happened with several previous iOS releases and I'm not sure at all it has anything to do with iOS.

Then this morning, for the first time ever, I had a case where, after the phone reverted, on its own, to speaker mode, no matter how many times I went back and tapped the speaker button and re-selected "Speaker", the iPhone refused to budge off the iphone speaker.

This is extremely annoying.

I've tried a reset of the iPhone where I did a backup and restore but not a total start-from-zero.

Does this issue seem like a hardware problem?

Since this issue is difficult to reproduce "on demand" (say, in the Apple Store), it's also difficult to figure out.

Look forward to any suggestions.
