Listening to music and taking calls?

When listening to music on my iPhone 5 with the ear pods, I don't get notified of incoming calls. I only get an alert that a voicemail has been left. What can I do to get incoming calls?

The music will be interrupted by the ring. There is no way you could not know the call is coming in unless the call never actually rang on your phone.


Test it by having someone call you both with and without the headphones plugged in. If the phone doesn't ring, but you know you are in the coverage area for you carrier and the phone indicates you have coverage, contact your carrier.
