Abstract

System, method, and various embodiments for providing an automatic audio source selection system are described herein. An embodiment operates by determining a state of a first device configured to output first video to a screen and first audio to one or more speakers. A priority of the first device is determined relative to one or more other devices configured to output second video to the screen and second audio to the one or more speakers. An audio source for the one or more speakers is selected based on both the state of the first device and the priority of the first device. Based on the selected audio source, audio is provided to the one or more speakers for output, wherein the output audio corresponds to video output to the screen from the selected audio source.
