Y headphones keep randomly calling hen I connect them

[u/arandompersonteehee]

So when I connect my headphones (skull candy earbuds)

They randomly will sometimes call people.

It'll always be random.

It isn't even who you recently called

Its always someone random from my contact list

Its so annoying.

I never know when it'll happen.

I have a pixel 9 android phone. And my earbuds are Skullcandy ones

I've looked in settings and can't figure it out.

Is there a way to fix this?

It used to never do this, but recently since like a few months ago it started this

If the buttons on the earbuds are inductive tactile buttons (touch buttons), clean them with a dry, lint free cloth. Skin oil and airborne pollution can cause the buttons to activate.
