Default alarm indication

There I am driving along in my 2017 XC60 listening to a disc on the hard drive,
when the dash shows ALARM with press OK or EXIT and music starts playing.

There was no messages or any indication what was happening.
The music carried on until I pressed exit.

Anyone any idea what is happening or happened.

I think this is a test for DAB emergency radio transmissions in case of war!

Yes, it's a test of the emergency warning broadcast system. They test it every so often and I usually get re-tuned to Classic FM
