Every time my phone gets connected to bluetooth speaker, messaging apps automatically come out of forced stop state and start running in the background.
Shouldn’t force stopping applications prevent them from any type of interaction/activity, and if not, why only 2 messaging apps, in this case, signal and telegram get reactivated and brought to background? Any ideas? Is this some sort of a bug, I’m on Android 13.

Force stop is not a state. It’s an action, unless it’s some feature I don’t know about.
Apps don’t have to actively listen to events. They can subscribe to broadcast and the OS will trigger the app whenever that occurs.
Not a bug, that’s how the apps are designed. If you look at the permissions the telegram app asks you can figure it out. Route audio, view wifi connection, pair with bluetooth devices. When you connect a bt speaker, the OS let’s these apps know there’s a device connected and the apps start. OS and the apps have no way of knowing what you want to do with a connected device.
