A hearing device includes: first and second primary microphones for provision of first and second primary microphone input signals; a secondary microphone for provision of a secondary microphone input signal; a mixing module for provision of a mixer output based on a primary mixer input and/or a secondary mixer input, primary mixer input being based on the first and second primary microphone input signals, the secondary mixer input being based on the secondary microphone input signal; a processing unit configured to provide an electrical output signal; and a receiver for converting the electrical output signal to an audio output signal; wherein the mixing controller is configured to increase an amount of the secondary mixer input in the mixer output for a time period after a presence of a sound event is determined, and reduce the amount of the secondary mixer input in the mixer output after the time period.

Hearing device with microphone switching and related method

A hearing device for enhancing speech intelligibility, the hearing device includes: an input transducer for providing an input signal comprising a speech signal and a noise signal; a processing unit; an acoustic output transducer coupled to the processing unit, the acoustic output transducer configured to provide an audio output signal based on an output signal form the processing unit; wherein the processing unit is configured to determine one or more parameters of the input signal based on a codebook based approach (CBA) processing; and wherein the processing unit is configured to perform a Kalman filtering of the input signal based on the determined one or more parameters so that the output signal has an enhanced speech intelligibility.
