Abstract
In a computer system that provides for routing of audio content of a target audio application to a requestor audio application, an audio playback/routing manager manages audio routing between audio applications. For example, a requestor audio application may specify a target audio application from which audio content is to be received. An audio playback/routing manager can determine the audio content of the target audio application and provide the requested audio content to the requestor audio application. In this way, rather than receiving all of the audio content being rendered to an audio endpoint, which may include audio content of multiple applications, the requestor audio application can receive only audio content of one or more particular target audio applications.
