yes, similar things happened for us, everybody was soldered to their
headsets and earplugs to be able to focus

one day the speakers ended up on the new standing desk and nobody in
that room said anything about the speakers being plugged. the volume
is not loud, and when someone wants to focus that person generally get
the headset out, go to another room or we all switch to headsets.

in the end, the speakers did help making talks and communication
easier avoiding the "locked away" effect,

as usual proceed with community approval / talks I suppose
