Abstract
A computer-implemented method, according to one approach, includes: receiving a source audio signal from a speaker on a group call between the speaker and participants. Copies of resulting audio signals are also received from the participants. The copies of the resulting audio signals include unique versions of the source audio signal as it was received by the respective participants. The computer-implemented method also includes determining an amount of the source audio signal that is received by the respective participants. The determination is made by comparing the source audio signal with the respective copies of the resulting audio signals. Statuses that are correlated with the amount of the source audio signal received by the respective participants are further output to the speaker.
