Samsung earbuds make or emit an unusual sound

Samsung earbuds emit a call sound when not worn
Note
To reduce battery consumption, the earbuds will deactivate when you remove them from your ears or if they cannot detect that you're wearing them.
If the touch-sensitive sensors on the earbuds are dirty, have smudges, or come into contact with certain objects, the earbuds may function as if they're inserted in your ears. This will cause the earbuds to emit a sound when a call comes in on the connected device, even when you're not wearing them.
To prevent this from happening, keep the earbuds clean, make sure you are wearing them properly, and keep them in the charging case when you're not using them.
Samsung earbuds are beeping
If you're wearing the earbuds when they feel hot or start beeping, immediately remove them from your ears. Do not place the earbuds in the charging case or attempt to wear them again until the earbuds have cooled down completely. You should wait until your earbuds have resumed their normal operating temperature before using them.
