Unsecure access on my Spotify enabled device

Unsecure access on my Spotify enabled device

Hi all. I have a Sony audio device with Spotify. I don't use Spotify and I probably never will use it but my girlfriend noticed it on her Android phone and controlled my device via my local wireless network. She shares her Premium account with her son.

When she left today and came home she told her son about my audio device. Her son noticed the name of my device in his devices list (!) and ... switched my device on and played some annoying songs. My girlfriend is also able to overrule my choices and can turn my device on and off. She is more than 200 km away and by no means connected via my local wireless network. Apparently Spotify Premium finds its way through the web with us only noticing it today. In my eyes this is a very serious security breach and I absolutely want to be in control of my own devices. Please solve this security breach !!
