Abstract
A first device receives a sound suppression message from a second device via a communication network. The sound suppression message indicates that the second device will produce an audible sound. The first device determines a sound profile associated with the second device. The first device then modifies (e.g., suppresses or reduces) a volume of sound that that the first device (or a third device) produces in response to receiving the sound suppression request message and based, at least in part, on the sound profile associated with the second device. The sound profile can include a device identifier associated with classes, models, and makes of devices.
