CarPlay Gremlin

Today was the first day I actually drove the X3 (and love it I might add) for more than just a run to detail or dinner a couple of miles away. It has been waiting oh so impatiently in the garage for the Escape to head back to Ford and today was that day.

I had an issue crop up on the way to work and on the way home that I am hoping for a cure.
When I was first driving this morning the media was set to FM radio but switched to playing music from my iPhone via CarPlay on it's own just after CarPlay booted up. No matter what I did to switch it back to FM it refused and instead kept insisting on CarPlay. On the way home it stayed on the radio until I received a text message. I touched the screen for it to play the message (CarPlay) and as soon as the message was done the media switched to my iPhone via CarPlay.
This time it allowed to go back to FM radio but it was annoying. Should I delete and reinstall my phone and/or CarPlay or is there another cure?
