Abstract
The technology described in this document can be embodied in a computer-implemented method that includes receiving, at a processing system, a first signal including an output of a speaker device and an additional audio signal. The method also includes determining, by the processing system, based at least in part on a model trained to identify the output of the speaker device, that the additional audio signal corresponds to an utterance of a user. The method further includes initiating a reduction in an audio output level of the speaker device based on determining that the additional audio signal corresponds to the utterance of the user.
Claims21
(canceled)
A computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving, by a first computing device, first audio data that includes an utterance;
- determining, by the first computing device, that a second computing device is outputting second audio data;
- and
- based on determining that that the second computing device is outputting the second audio data and based on receiving the audio data that includes the utterance, providing, by the first computing device and for output to the second computing device, an instruction to suppress outputting the second audio data.
A system comprising:
- one or more computers;
- and
- one or more computers and one or more storage devices storing instructions that are operable, when executed by the one or more computers, to cause the one or more computers to perform operations comprising:
- receiving, by a first computing device, first audio data that includes an utterance;
- determining, by the first computing device, that a second computing device is outputting second audio data;
- and
- based on determining that that the second computing device is outputting the second audio data and based on receiving the audio data that includes the utterance, providing, by the first computing device and for output to the second computing device, an instruction to suppress outputting the second audio data.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing software comprising instructions executable by one or more computers which, upon such execution, cause the one or more computers to perform operations comprising:
- receiving, by a first computing device, first audio data that includes an utterance;
- determining, by the first computing device, that a second computing device is outputting second audio data;
- and
- based on determining that that the second computing device is outputting the second audio data and based on receiving the audio data that includes the utterance, providing, by the first computing device and for output to the second computing device, an instruction to suppress outputting the second audio data.
