Abstract
Examples disclosed herein relate to controlling volume on an immersive display device. One example provides a near-eye display device comprising a sensor subsystem, a logic subsystem, and a storage subsystem storing instructions executable by the logic subsystem to receive image sensor data from the sensor subsystem, present content comprising a visual component and an auditory component, while presenting the content, detect via the image sensor data that speech is likely being directed at a wearer of the near-eye display device, and in response to detecting that speech is likely being directed at the wearer, attenuate an aspect of the auditory component.
