Could be a controller issue. Make sure no one is accidentally pressing the power button on a nearby controller.

I've had this issue! Turns out it was due to HDMI-CEC. Disable it in the settings and it should stop.

Firmware glitches. Keep your Xbox updated to prevent random power-ons.

Check your Kinect sensor if you have one. It might be picking up unintended sounds or movements.
