Abstract
A positional relation sensing section () of a control section () senses the relative position relation between first and second cabinets (and) based on output of magnetic sensing elements (and) and outputs a position determination signal (S). If the state is 'transition state' in which one cabinet slides and moves based on the position determination signal (S), a voice control section () outputs a mute control signal (S) to a voice processing section () as a muting instruction. Accordingly, all outputs of voice signals collected by a microphone () to a receiver (), a loudspeaker (), a wireless communication section (), a short-range wireless communication section (), and a voice output terminal () are stopped.
