Control terminal, control method, and control program

A control method, comprising the steps of:

• an audio transmission step in which a control terminal present in a vehicle transmits sound to be reproduced by a first terminal in the vehicle to the first terminal;
• a first determination step of determining whether the first terminal is capable of outputting sound from a speaker mounted in the vehicle;
• and
• a request step of requesting muting of the first terminal in accordance with a determination in the first determination step,
• wherein the request step causes sound to be reproduced by the first terminal without requesting muting of the first terminal when the first terminal is capable of outputting sound from the speaker mounted in the vehicle, and requests muting of the first terminal when the first terminal is not capable of outputting sound from the speaker mounted in the vehicle.

A control program executed by a control terminal present in a vehicle, the control program causing the control terminal to perform:

• an audio transmission step of transmitting, to a first terminal in the vehicle, sound to be reproduced by the first terminal;
• a first determination step of determining whether the first terminal is capable of outputting sound from a speaker mounted in the vehicle;
• and
• a request step of requesting muting of the first terminal in accordance with a determination in the first determination step,
• wherein the request step causes sound to be reproduced by the first terminal without requesting muting of the first terminal when the first terminal is capable of outputting sound from the speaker mounted in the vehicle, and requests muting of the first terminal when the first terminal is not capable of outputting sound from the speaker mounted in the vehicle.
