How can I stop my Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones from pausing audio when I talk?

I love my Sony WH1000XM4 headphones. However, every time I mutter something or sing along to a lyric it pauses the audio. This has become incredibly annoying and I would like to prevent them from pausing. Can I stop my Sony Headphones from pausing the audio whenever I speak? If so, how? I primarily utilize iOS and PopOS with the headphones—both exhibit this issue.
