Why do my noise-cancelling headphones amplify footsteps on a wooden floor?
Our answer
Active noise cancellation can create pressure-like sounds from impacts; reduce ANC strength or use passive mode on wooden floors.
Why this approach makes sense
Device software, permissions and connected services change how a feature behaves; use settings for the actual model rather than a generic workaround.
Before you try it
Verify the relevant device and account permissions, and make changes one at a time.
