I recently switched from wireless to wired headphones (Samson SR-850, probably the best for the very reasonable price) and my chair’s wheels instantly started eating its cable. Right now I’m using a small plastic hook that came with a face mask to keep it off the floor, but I’d like to hear other solutions.

I run the cable on top of my desk instead of under. Makes the desk look more cluttered, but no risk of catching the cable in the wheels.
I used a coiled cable and put my audio interface to my side higher up on a shelf. That way when I am seated the headphone cable barely touched the ground.
Shorter cables are probably the best solution.

Roll up the excess cable into a loop and sellotape the loop to stay in a loop. Maybe looks ugly but nobody else sees it lol.
I switched from wired to wireless because my chair kept eating the cable.
But maybe try getting a longer cable or extension cable and plugging it into the back of the computer and running it up behind the desk and across the top.
I don’t. When at home, Bluetooth speaker; (unless doing sound-critical stuff, of which I use my earphones) When on a move, earphones.
My pc is on top of the desk and the ports are on top. The cable just hangs down and it is sufficiently long to allow mobility even a bit further away. It is also short enough that it cannot touch the floor.
NZXT Puck. I have 2 which means I have 4 cable holders.
The cable on the Grado SR60X and her siblings are comically long. They are pretty thick too, so I decided to braid them up, reducing their length from 2 down to about 0.6 metres. You can look up some easy guides on YouTube for this.
if my cat isn’t chewing on them I consider it a win
