HX Stomp Randomly switching Presets?

So I've been using the HX Stomp in my Bass Rig for about a few months. I have the latest firmware loaded and it has worked great. However, the last 2 gigs I've had this issue where I'm playing and then randomly I notice that I'm on a completely different preset. For context:

 

1. I'm in Stomp Mode and have the 3 FS's set to control different effects.

2. I know I didn't accidentally hit and FS's because 99% of the time I am not switching effects on/off.

 

The only really common thing to the gigs where it happened was that I was relatively close to the subon my side (about 5' away) and the gigs were in daylight outside.

 

Anyone else have this issue? Any ideas on why it happened? How to fix it?

So last week I went through ALL settings to ensure that I hadn't inadvertently set anything that could be causing this. I found nothing that would be casuing the described behavior. This past weekend I played 2 gigs and sure enough, same issues. Halfway through one set I looked down and saw that the presets menu was up on screen waiting for me to select one. A different time I looked down and saw that my presets had changed from Preset 001 to 002. The unit is not in a place where someone (band member or otherwise) could have come in contact with it. At this point I am thinking that possibly vibration from the house subs may be causing this??

Is it possible that you are mistakenly pressing the wrong footswitch, or two footswitches at once, when this happens?

Nope. Basically I am using the HX Stomp setup with the following blocks:

1. Retro Reel for mild saturation (Always on and no FS assigned)

2. FX Send and Return Block (Always on and no FS assigned) this allows me to have 2 dirt pedals in the loop and blend them with the clean. I use the individual FS's on these dirt boxes.

3. Phaser (Assigned to FS2 and only used for 2 songs)

4. Chorus (Assigned to FS3 and only used for 3 songs)

5. Regal DI (Always On and no FS assigned)

 

The issue I am having frequently occurs mid set /  mid song and during songs where I haven't used any of the HX's FS's.

Oh and I should mention that I have a Hotone Ampero+ Footswitch connected and set for Preset bank switching (FS 1 > Prev and FS2 > Next) However, I have tried disconnecting the unit and it has still happened.
