Abstract
The present disclosure provides for detection of conditions, and triggering role switch between wirelessly paired devices in response to detection of particular conditions. In response to detection of particular conditions, a primary device may switch roles with a secondary device. Such conditions may include battery level of each device, signal strength of each device, audio buffer levels, whether the devices are being worn by a user, whether a microphone is active, historic data, or any combination of these or other conditions.
