Put locktite or petroleum jelly in there, or a rubber seal. Then it's waterproof. Plus if the positive and negative terminals are far enough apart you'll never get a short between them.

I'm just spitballing but you could have the battery embedded within a plastic headless bolt, then you screw that bolt into the "arm" of the headphones. Have metal contacts like a lightbulb to connect it to the rest of the headphone.
Have a torx screw head exposed from the outside, now to replace the battery you unscrew this bolt to get the battery out and replace it with another battery in bolt unit.

That would be follow up research. No need to delay the release of the original study until solutions are found. Identifying the problem is good enough as a first step.
