Speech tokens were embedded in onset-anchored masking noise to control for temporal position.

Evidence

Most remarkably, even a 100-ms time shift in the white masking-noise waveform induced significant perceptual variability, indicating that “steady-state” masking noise should not be considered steady over time in the context of consonant cues. — Dijk, Pim van, Physiology, Psychoacoustics and…, 5575 (#responds-to, via linked claim)
