Monster Headphones Causing Problems With iDevices?

Apple is reportedly investigating issues with Monster headphones that can cause your iDevice to pause and play erratically, according to screenshots obtained by MacRumors.

Several Monster headphone models using Apple's Remote and Mic technology do not meet Apple's technical specifications. These headphones use conductive flanges, which can result in electrical shorts that cause an iPod or iPhone to pause and play erratically.

There are no known safety concerns and no known risk of damage to the iPod/iPhone or headphones.

Apple has a list of around two dozen models affected by the issue.
