So basically someone comes in to ask me a question, I pause whatever I'm listening to and try to have a conversa-IDLE MODE TIME BRO!!!-tion when my train of thought gets interr-STILL IN IDLE MODE SWEET HUH??

Fine, but it insists on telling you I'M GOING INTO IDLE MODE NOW with 3 or 4 loud beeps, for some reason a crash of static, then two more slower beeps - and then repeats this pattern ten seconds later

One "feature" that makes me want to not use these at all: When I pause, which I do many times a day, at some random time interval in the future the headphones go into a power-saving idle mode
