Probably springtails. They start up for apparently no reason sometimes. Probably come in on a plant or the dirt stuck in the roots. When they come out, grab a straw and gently blow on them. If they are springtails, they will jump. Some species jump several inches. My giant blacks can jump 5 or 6"! Another clue is that springtails are usually much faster and more "chaotic". If they were isopods in any sort of density, you should see ones big enough to be identified as a "Rolly Polly".
Both of the bugs I've mentioned are good to have.
