Fade out, not wishing to hear (4)
I believe the answer is:
deaf
'not wishing to hear' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'fade out' is the wordplay.
'out' indicates an anagram (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'fade' with letters rearranged gives 'DEAF'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for deaf that I've seen before include "Not prepared to listen" , "Hard of hearing" , "Unable to pick up" , "Rudely confident" , "Unable to hear" .)
