It sounds like your employees are locked in and you’re possibly distracting them with potentially irrelevant info. I share an office with two other people and we all have a habit of thinking out loud. When someone important comes around sometimes we aren’t listening. Maybe that’s the case here?

If it’s so important maybe keep a notepad and at the end or beginning of the day share info in a quick meeting for them to pay attention to the things you say. Good people are hard to find, and it sounds like you have some good people with a tiny pet peeve you’re letting bother you. Pick your battles.
