Why  I  am  not  a  fan  of  the  radio  autoplay  "feature"

My daily commute is about 120 kms / 2. 5 hours per day. I usually listen to Audible audiobooks or to podcasts via bluetooth on my iPhone. When I enter the garage I usually use the pause button on the steering wheel to pause / stop the playback. So far so good - until the next morning when this happens:

It's 6 o'clock. The neighbourhood as well as my family are fast asleep. I open the automatic garage door and open the back door on my Model S to hang up my jacket as well as put my bag on the rear seat. Shortly after I open the door I am greeted with the customary "resuming audio" chime and Mel from the talking tesla podcast screams "Eleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeektreeeeeeek" at volume level 5 or 6. 

Needless to say, the neighbourhood as well as at least my wife are now awake for sure.

The same thing happens of course again when I arrive at work. I close the front door and open the back door to get my things - and the radio starts blasting away again. This has gone so far that I am darting in and out of my car like a lunatic just so that the stupid radio does not start playing again. 

This is a huge pain. I wish Tesla would include a "disable autoplay" feature that lets me choose wether or not I want the radio to automatically start playing when any of the cars doors open.
