So theres Left, Right and Ground wires, there are not "bass" or "hi-freq" wires, so if 1 is damages shoudnt it only hear quieter or not at all?

If the common wire is broken, maybe depending on how the headphones are wired you will hear the difference between left and right instead?

This might be it. Depending on how the sound is mixed the voice might cancel itself out since it's usually similar between left and right and the instruments are not. So they will not experience the same interference
