This is what happens automatically when the noise blanker operates 
at a much higher bandwidth compared to the one brought to the loudspeaker.
The baseband filter is like a very heavy flywheel. It will go on doing
what it already did over the time interval where the noise pulse was 
blanked out and it will not notice that the desired signal was missing 
for a while.
