Apr 4, 2016 8:18 AM in response to brahillby ChitlinsCC,I have no idea about this issue specifically... but I was curious so I searched " false battery low warning ipod shuffle " in Google
from Google TOP (and 'recommended') result > iPod shuffle: Checking the battery charge - Apple Support
A "Note" may shed light on a possibility
- When iPod shuffle is not connected to USB and the unit is quickly switched off and then on again, iPod shuffle will provide VoiceOver feedback announcing the approximate battery charge level through the connected earphones. While listening to music, iPod shuffle will also play an announcement when it has reached approximately 10% charge. A 3-tone chime will play when the charge level is very low, just before iPod shuffle shuts down.
Why not try quickly switching the iPod off and then on again and test?

Apr 4, 2016 9:17 AM in response to brahillby Kenichi Watanabe,In case your shuffle is receiving false remote control signals (which may activate VoiceOver) from the headphone cord (even if it doesn't have remote control buttons), make sure the headphones plug is fully inserted into the shuffle's headphones jack. It should "snap" into place when fully seated. The fit may be tighter than expected. You may still get audio when partially inserted, but the connection points on the plug may not be properly aligned, causing false remote control signals. Also, try a different set of headphones, to rule out faulty headphones as the cause; see if this problem goes away with different headphones.
Otherwise, if the iPod is not operating properly, you may want to do a Restore on the shuffle using iTunes. This erases the iPod, reinstalls its software, and sets it to default settings.
