How do I stop 'reading' Burmese in my head and actually hear the tones?

I'm an intermediate learner and I can read the Burmese script reasonably well, but I’ve hit a total plateau. I find myself 'decoding' the characters like a math problem instead of flowing through the sentence, which means I completely miss the tones when I listen to native media. I feel like my brain is stuck in reading mode. Any advice on how to force my brain to stop relying on the script and start identifying those tonal shifts quickly?
