Abstract
Embodiments of the invention provide a policy-based audio system. The system includes a sound application protocol interface, a configuration module and a speaker driver. The sound application protocol interface receives a set of sound samples generated by an application or event. The configuration module retrieves a first group of one or more parameters, rules and priorities applicable to the application or event. The speaker driver produces an audio output by processing the set of sound samples as a function of the group of one or more configuration parameters, rules and priorities.
