Headphone Cord Coiling up!!! Help?

I have a high end headset with a very long cord running into my Sound card. The darn thing keeps coiling up, no matter how hard i try to keep it straight it bends and twists all over and gets super annoying.
Does anyone know why this happens or how to fix / prevent it?

ty!

You could use a cable tidy to reduce the length, minimizing the amount of coiling.
