Audio output control device

An audio output control device that outputs audio information from an audio output device according to an output request output from each of a plurality of output request devices for requesting an output of the audio information, the audio control device comprising:

• a control device that adjusts an output of earlier audio information and an output of later audio information in a situation where a request for outputting the later audio information is made before the output of the earlier audio information ends,
• wherein the control device includes:
• a first acquisition device that acquires end time information related to an estimated time of the output of the earlier audio information, at which transmission of a significant content of the earlier audio information is completed;
• a second acquisition device that acquires delay permissible information related to a permissible time of a delay from time when the request for outputting the later audio information is made until the output of the later audio information starts;
• and
• a first determination device that determines whether a wait for outputting the later audio information is available, according to a temporal relationship between the end time information acquired by the first acquisition device and the delay permissible information acquired by the second acquisition device, and
• wherein the control device waits for outputting the later audio information, and outputs the later audio information after preferentially executing the output of the earlier audio information, under a condition that it is determined that the wait by the first determination device is available.
