Descrizione

So this thing ...

My thoughts / observations:

  1. Sometimes it happens for an obvious reason like when she's talking about herself.
  2. Sometimes it happens even when she doesn't say her name.
  3. Snowboy might be more accurate and could solve (2).
  4. Possible solutions:
    1. Disable listening when playing stuff - stupid.
    2. Do some sort of sound cancellation - oh man, this wouldn't be easy. This would depend on each specific device - we would probably need some calibration. And how exactly would we get the output audio? Syncing with the played file doesn't sound easy. Should playback_handlers provide interface for this? People have various operating systems and sound backends - this would be a nightmare to support all. PulseAudio has output monitors that could probably be used for this, I don't know.

Your ideas?
