I feel for you ... I'm stuck with something similar but its visual. Sometimes I will see things that aren't there ... and it takes me a while to realize that its not there or that I'm interpreting it wrong.
I once saw "Recycle your kids" on an add ... only to realize that it was something like "think of your kids, recycle" but it did give me a few funny mental immages.
Usually it makes so little sense that its how I know what is real and what is not (like seeing someone with a giant scarab latched onto their neck or a giant tiger on the street) although I have no way of knowing if some of the more reasonable things I see are real or not ... it can get a bit freaky.
To listen better at your neighbors, it helps if you put a glass upside down against the wall and then put your ear on teh bottom of the glass. You should normally get a much clearer sound. If its a real one that is.
