Control Center has the capability to switch to a different device automatically when activity on that device is detected. (e.g. pressing a button on the AppleTV remote will cause Control Center to detect activity on AppleTV and switch to the AppleTV input). This way, you can use the original remote for any given device if you prefer and Control Center will automatically switch to that input.
Sometimes source devices can send stray signals to Control Center, which it can interpret as you trying to use that device. Additionally, some devices will automatically update themselves (guides and software) which can also be seen as activity by Control Center.
You can enable/disable auto-switch with any of the devices you have connected to Control Center.
