S8+ Loud Speaker Turns on automatically during a call

[AC Question]

Hello,

Handset: Samsung S8+
Purchase Date: May 29, 2017

Problem: Sometimes when I am on a normal phone call (Outgoing or Incoming), speakers turns on it's own. If i look at phone, the speaker icon is not "GREEN" (which means it wasn't pressed). I have to press the speaker icon once and nothing happens because at that time the phone starts loud speaker (Which is already turned on) and then i press it again to turn it off and everything is back to normal.

During a single call this can happen multiple times.

I am not sure what's wrong. I installed a Call recorder app previously, but then uninstalled it (Thinking it might be creating that problem), but the problem still persists.

Has anybody faced this issue or anyone can hint me what to do ?

I have exactly the same problem since yesterday. It happens during normal phone calls and WhatsApp calls. If I'm in the car it switches the audio from Bluetooth to loudspeaker.

Has anyone solved this yet?

What in the hell is all that crap?

I discovered tonight that if you have any hands free devices connected that your calling audio can get rerouted funny even if you answer your phone normaly. Did you guys have any bluetooth devices connected at the time?
