Abstract[English] A computer-implemented method monitors a background SPL. The method also determines that the background SPL is below a first SPL threshold. A speaker of an auditory device plays white noise. The method, responsive to determining that the white noise has played for a first length that meets a first time threshold or that the background SPL meets the first SPL threshold, stops playing the white noise. The method further includes continuing to monitor the background SPL until the background SPL is below the first SPL threshold.[French] Un procédé implémenté par ordinateur surveille un SPL en arrière-plan. Le procédé détermine également que le SPL en arrière-plan est inférieur à un premier seuil de SPL. Un haut-parleur d'un dispositif auditif diffuse un bruit blanc. Le procédé, en réponse à la détermination du fait que le bruit blanc a été diffusé pendant une première durée qui satisfait un premier seuil de temps, ou que le SPL en arrière-plan satisfait le premier seuil de SPL, arrête de diffuser le bruit blanc. Le procédé consiste en outre à continuer de surveiller le SPL en arrière-plan jusqu'à ce que le SPL en arrière-plan soit inférieur au premier seuil de SPL.
