System and methods for triggering sounds to mask noise from respiratory systems and their components

A system for masking noises generated during use of a respiratory device, the system comprising:

• a respiratory device configured to supply pressurized air;
• a mask coupled to the respiratory device via a tube, the mask being configured to engage a user during a sleep session to aid in directing the supplied pressurized air to an airway of the user;
• a memory storing machine-readable instructions;
• and
• a control system including one or more processors configured to execute the machine-readable instructions to:
• analyze audio data to determine (i) if background noise associated with one or more background devices is present and (ii) if operational noise associated with operation of the respiratory device, the mask, the tube, or any combination thereof is occurring;
• determine, via the control system, that (i) the background noise is present and (ii) the operational noise is occurring;
• and
• responsive to the determination that (i) background noise is present and (ii) operational noise is occurring, emit sound from a speaker to aid in masking the operational noise, the sound emitted by the speaker having fill-in sounds including one or more characteristics that increase an amplitude of relatively quieter frequencies of the background noise up to a target amplitude level to provide a relatively fuller background noise.
