Huh. No crackling at all? That is certainly weird. Sometimes electrical things that are acting weird, start just working correctly again. Usually when I see something like that's it's a physical problem not electrical. Think about it like rust in a switch, you move it a bunch, the rust falls off and the switch works again.
So my thought is that you got water, or more likely sweat, onto the actual speaker. Which then hydrolocked the driver. Maybe the water finally dried out and the salts dried, cracked and fell out when you finally tried it again.
That's a total guess and I have no way of proving it.
I thought there would be some crackles, too. Really tried bending the endpoints near the phones and the jack but still works.
I mean Im glad it works again. My danky philips had the mike unit torn into half so... I should be more easy towards my electronics i guess
