does music bother them?
do they wake up with sounds?
is that why they get startled?

I've heard that they can't hear, but they are sensitive to vibrations
so they probably can't hear your words, but they can feel them

that's pretty cool haha

I've heard that they can hear very low pitches but not high ones. And, of course, they sense vibrations.
