How to remove inadvertently selected headphones from AirPlay on iPhone?

Inadvertently selected Headphones when I physically connected my iPhone to an external speaker, it shows up as USB-C Audio under Airplay with a headphone emoji at bottom of Apple Music.

The reason being is the output is restricted because it is connected as headphones.

Is there anyway to reset this so I can select "other devices" without having to reset the iPhone?

Airplay Starts at Max Volume I don’t know if this is a iOS 17 bug or not but whenever I connect to Airplay it starts at 100% and damages my speakers. I have a iPhone 14 on iOS 16 it remembers my previous setting when last connected or defaults to starting at 50% I have a iPhone 12 which did the same whilst it was on iOS 16 but when I updated to iOS 17 it changed and now blast to 100% I have an iPad Air on iOS 17 which also blast to max volume i have had to replace speakers and subwoofers 3x this year because of this issue Apple needs to release an update to resolve this issue because it is very costly mistake if you forget to mute the volume before music plays.

Stop auto play when I connect Bluetooth headphones I have an iPhone 13. I cannot turn off autoplay. When ever I connect my Bluetooth headphones, music plays. I have spent ages trying to sort this out. I do not have the autoplay symbol to be able to turn it off. (The infinity symbol). Is there anyone out there who can help? I really am getting fed up with this. Thank you.
