In some instances, the first device includes a microphone for generating audio signals that include user speech, as well as a speaker for outputting audible content in response to identified voice commands from the speech. However, the first device might not include a display for displaying graphical content. As such, the first device may be configured to identify devices that include displays and that are proximate to the first device. The first device may then instruct one or more of these other devices to output visual content associated with a user's voice command. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A method comprising: capturing, via a microphone at a first device, input audio data representing a voice command; and outputting output audio data via a speaker of the first device, the output audio data based at least in part on the input audio data, and the output audio data representing at least a query result and an audio indication that visual content that is associated with the query result is to be presented on a second device that is associated with the first device. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The method as recited in claim 1, further comprising: generating, as generated synthesized speech, the output audio data. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The method as recited in claim 1, further comprising: sending the input audio data to a server for speech recognition. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The method as recited in claim 1, wherein the output audio data is first output audio data, the method further comprising: outputting second output audio data to identify the second device. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The method as recited in claim 1, further comprising: determining that the second device is proximate to the first device based at least in part on detecting a wireless signal associated with the second device, wherein the audio indication includes at least an identity of the second device. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The method as recited in claim 1, further comprising: outputting a query via the speaker of the first device to present the visual content on the second device. ### Claim 7 A device comprising: one or more processors; a memory; and computer-executable instructions stored in the memory that, when executed by the one or more processors, causes the one or more processors to perform acts comprising: receiving input audio data captured via a microphone at a first device, the input audio data representing a voice command; and transmitting output audio data to the first device, the output audio data representing at least a query result and an audio indication that visual content that is associated with the query result is to be presented via a second device that is associated with first device. ### Claim 8 (depends on 7) The device as recited in claim 7, the acts further comprising: transmitting, to the second device, the visual content that is to be presented via the second device. ### Claim 9 (depends on 7) The device as recited in claim 7, the acts further comprising: performing speech recognition on the input audio data. ### Claim 10 (depends on 7) The device as recited in claim 7, the acts further comprising: transmitting, to the first device, the output audio data identifying the second device. ### Claim 11 (depends on 7) The device as recited in claim 7, wherein the output audio data further represents: a summary of the visual content; and additional content related to the visual content. ### Claim 12 (depends on 7) The device as recited in claim 7, wherein the visual content includes at least one link accessible via an application operating on the second device to obtain additional content. ### Claim 13 (depends on 7) The device as recited in claim 7, the acts further comprising: determining an utterance represented by the input audio data; and wherein the visual content includes a textual representation of the utterance. ### Claim 14 A system comprising: one or more processors; memory; and computer-executable instructions stored in the memory that, when executed by the one or more processors, causes the one or more processors to perform acts comprising: receiving input audio data captured via a microphone at a first device, the input audio data representing a voice command; and transmitting output audio data to the first device, the output audio data representing at least a query result and an audio indication that visual content that is associated with the query result is to be presented via a second device that is associated with first device. ### Claim 15 (depends on 14) The system as recited in claim 14, wherein acts further comprise: transmitting, to the second device, the visual content that is to be presented via the second device. ### Claim 16 (depends on 14) The system as recited in claim 14, wherein the acts further comprise: performing speech recognition on the input audio data. ### Claim 17 (depends on 14) The system as recited in claim 14, wherein acts further comprise: transmitting, to the first device, the output audio data identifying the second device. ### Claim 18 (depends on 14) The system as recited in claim 14, wherein the output audio data further represents: a summary of the visual content; and additional content related to the visual content. ### Claim 19 (depends on 14) The system as recited in claim 14, wherein the visual content includes at least one link accessible via an application operating on the second device to obtain additional content. ### Claim 20 (depends on 14) The system as recited in claim 14, wherein the acts further comprise: determining an utterance represented by the input audio data; and wherein the visual content includes a textual representation of the utterance.
