I have a hard time understanding someone so oblivious as to need telling not to try talking to someone with earbuds in.

You can see them. Don’t talk to me. If you must, get my attention first with a wave or something - don’t touch me.

Do you apply this rule in reverse? If you need to speak to someone who isn't wearing earphones, do you wave at them first or do you just start talking to them?

I suspect the latter.
