Mine did that but I could hear music through the headset when the switch was flipped, eventually the problem because more frequently and then it stopped all together... broken circuit board in the HK unit.

Probably a cracked circuit board. Wonder if your bike has the updated (shortened) handlebar bracket bolts? The longer ones were hitting the bottom of the radio and causing the circuit boards to malfunction. Iron Cross fixed me up and with the new shorter bolts, I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Oh, there's a service bulletin out on the bolts but you have to buy them, go figure....
