What does it mean when your hearing sounds like a robot?
Diplacusis is generally a symptom of unilateral or bilateral hearing loss. Onset is usually sudden and can be caused by exposure to loud noise, an ear infection, an obstruction in the ear canal (such as compacted earwax), or head trauma. People who develop diplacusis may also notice tinnitus in the affected ear.
Why does my hearing sound distorted?
The most common cause of hyperacusis is damage to the inner ear from ageing or exposure to loud noise. Hyperacusis is often associated with tinnitus (buzzing, ringing or whistling noises in the ears) and distortion of sounds. Usually both ears are affected, although it is possible to have it in only one ear.
Why do sounds sound robotic?
Poor network performance, lack of memory or high CPU usage often causes the audio quality to drop, become delayed or sound robotic.
Can distorted hearing be corrected?
There's no specific cure for it, but some treatments can help. These include sound therapy, behavioral therapy, and hearing aids in the case of hearing loss. If your hearing does not improve, make sure to see your doctor to find out what it is and what to do about it.
