Zusammenfassung:	A hearing assistive device has an input transducer (12) converting sound into an audio signal applied to a processor (14; 65). The processor (14; 65) is configured to compensate a hearing loss of a user of the hearing assistive device and to output a compensated audio signal. An output transducer (16; 65) converts the compensated audio signal into sound. The hearing assistive device (10) further comprises a wireless transceiver (21) enabling audio streaming from an external device (30) to the hearing assistive device, an attenuator (23) associated with said processor (14; 65) applying attenuation to the compensated audio signal, and an audio stream analyzer (22a) classifying the audio stream received via said wireless transceiver. The attenuator (23) is controlled in accordance to the audio stream classification from the audio stream analyzer (22a). The invention further provides a method of operating a hearing assistive device.
