Trigger Enter Issue

I have a trigger enter that is working bizarrely. The trigger enter is looking to see if the player has entered it and if it does turn a game object on and then off on exit. However, when i start the game it automatically thinks that the player has entered the trigger despite the player being really far away from the trigger. I am good with Unity and scripting, used trigger enter for a lot of things without issue. Here is my code, if anyone can shed some light on this problem that'd be brilliant.

 #pragma strict
 var securityCameraHolder : GameObject;
 var soundActive : boolean = false;
 
 function Start () {
     soundActive = false;
 }    
 
 
 function OnTriggerEnter (playerEnter : Collider) {
     if(playerEnter.gameObject.name == "player");    
         soundActive = true;
         Debug.Log("TriggerEntered");
 }
 
 function OnTriggerExit (playerExit : Collider) {
     if(playerExit.gameObject.name == "player");
     soundActive = false;
     Debug.Log("TriggerExit");
 }
 
 function Update () {
     
     if(soundActive == true) {
         securityCameraHolder.active = true;    
         Debug.Log("Security Camera is true");
     }
      
     if(soundActive == false) {
         securityCameraHolder.active = false;
         Debug.Log("security camera is false");    
     }
     
 }
