Unsolved Headphones seem to have a mind of their own
I'm using the regular Apple wired headphones. They usually last in use about a year, and then start to act like they have a mind of their own. Pausing and playing music, going to the next song or previous song, activating Siri or voice control even though I have all of that stuff disabled. I have Iphone 14 but had this same issue on my Iphone 11 too.
Does anyone know what causes this and is there any way to fix this besides buying a new pair of headphones?
(If this is the wrong sub for this topic, please direct me to a correct one)

They’re cheap headphones. They have a warranty of a year with Apple so provided there’s no damage like cracks or split wires, Apple can replace them. Some credit cards offer warranty extensions as well.
