Home and Power button not working properly?

[Android Central Question]

So I just started having this issue on my Galaxy s7 Edge today.

The first thing that happened was that my phone kept trying to pull up Google Assistant, interrupting anything I was doing, and asking my to turn it on. It got to the point that I just flat out disabled the Google App.

But now, every time I try to push home it tries to activate my Echo, and when I push the power down button, nothing happened unless I force a restart.

Any insight?

You remapped your buttons somehow?

Not quite sure about the power button, but if you long press/press too long on the home button it will activate Google Assistant which you might’ve changed to Amazon Alexa. Accidentally remapping buttons is probably the most likely event.
