Example techniques relate to local voice control in a media playback system. A satellite device (e.g., a playback device or microcontroller unit) may be configured to recognize a local set of keywords in voice inputs including context specific keywords (e.g., for controlling an associated smart device) as well as keywords corresponding to a subset of media playback commands for controlling playback devices in the media playback system. The satellite device may fall back to a hub device (e.g., a playback device) configured to recognize a more extensive set of keywords. In some examples, either device may fall back to the cloud for processing of other voice inputs.
