Always check both. + +6. **Initialization Sequence:** Commands 9 and 29 appear during device initialization. While their exact purpose is unclear from reverse engineering, they are part of the device startup sequence. + +7. **Firmware Version:** Command 17 returns firmware version information but does not typically generate user-facing events—it's primarily for logging and diagnostics. + +8. **Microphone Mute:** Hardware mute button on headset generates unsolicited responses with command ID 8.

Both to_string_with_padding() and to_string_with_readonly_info() now call this helper function: - to_string_with_padding() ignores the readonly flag - to_string_with_readonly_info() uses it to add (read-only) markers This eliminates ~100 lines of duplicated code and makes the codebase easier to maintain.
