Abstract
Techniques for a computing device operating in limited-access states are provided. One example method includes determining, by a computing device, that a notification is scheduled for output by the computing device during a first time period and that a pattern of audio detected during the first time period is indicative of human speech. The method further includes delaying output of the notification during the first time period and determining that a pattern of audio detected during a second time period is not indicative of human speech. The method also includes outputting at least a portion of the notification at an earlier in time of an end of the second time period or an expiration of a third time period.
