Abstract

Systems and methods for controlling a speaker. In one example, a method includes determining, based on a request to operate a speaker, a type of sound to be produced by the speaker, the request being indicative of whether operation of the speaker is for a communication session or to produce a system sound, and adjusting one or more parameters of the speaker to output (i) speech, based on the request indicating that operation of the speaker is to be for the communication session, or (ii) the system sound, based on the request indicating that the operation of the speaker is to produce the system sound. An example of the method further includes initiating operation of the speaker using the one or more parameters to produce the type of sound.
