Buzzer sounding in the middle of the quarter

Depends on what the players do. If it is a little horn and the players keep playing then you can ignore it. If any players react and/or stop playing then I'm blowing it dead, finding out if the table needs me, and putting the ball back in play at the POI.

Right, but the table thought it was. I don't see playing through the horn if the table is leaning on it.
