Hearing device comprising an adjustable vent

A hearing device configured to be located fully or partially in or at an ear of a user, the hearing device comprising:

• at least one microphone configured to provide an input signal representing sound,
• a processor configured to process the input signal and provide a processed signal,
• at least one loudspeaker configured to receive the processed signal from the processor and to provide an acoustic signal based on the processed signal to the ear of a user,
• an earpiece comprising
• a vent, and
• an electrically controllable valve configured to control the vent, and
• a valve control unit configured to receive one or more control signals in dependence of a current hearing situation of the hearing device, wherein the valve control unit is configured to adjust the electrically controllable valve in dependence of the one or more control signals to provide the vent in a state between an acoustically more open and an acoustically less open state;
• wherein the vent is configured as part of a speaker unit of said hearing device, wherein said speaker unit comprises a snout,
• wherein, within said snout, said vent extends in a longitudinal direction of the snout, and is configured as a bore, wherein the valve is configured to be arranged within said bore.
