HEARING AID AND METHOD

A method performed by a hearing aid and a hearing aid including one or more processors, a memory, two or more microphones, and an output transducer. The hearing aid is configured to generate a first processed signal (y) based on input signals from the two or more microphones and a steering value; wherein a target direction is associated with the steering value; and supply a signal (o) to the output transducer based on the first processed signal (y). For each steering value (s; d), comprised by multiple steering values, a first value ( Lθ) is computed; wherein the first value ( Lθ) is associated with a likelihood of an acoustic sound signal arriving from the target direction associated with the steering value. The hearing aid is further configured to: determine at least one salient first value ( L*θ) among the multiple first values and determining a steering value (s∗) associated with the at least one salient first value ( L*θ); compute a second value (H(θ)) associated with variability of at least some of the multiple first values; determine to change the first steering value (s∗) in response to a determination that the second value (H(θ)) satisfies at least a first criterion; and accordingly: generating the first processed signal (y) based on the steering value (s∗) associated with the at least one salient first value ( L*θ).
