Why are two Windows Phone emulators launching at once?

Recently I noticed that every time I launch a WP8 app from Visual Studio 2012, I get two emulators launching at the same time. If I close either one, it will relaunch on next debug. I have the VS2013 preview installed (not sure if that matters) and I have the newest version of the WP SDK installed. This is running on Windows 8 Pro. All my Google/Binging yielded no answers (or even other people asking the question!).

The solution turned out to be simple. I have the main phone app project along with some phone class library projects. Well, that's what I thought! It turns out that one of the class libraries had been created as an Application project instead! Now I need to convert/recreate the project as a library.

In other words, today I learned that you can have two WP apps in the same solution and debug them at the same time on different emulators!
