Abstract
An apparatus may include a processor circuit and an audio alignment module operative on the processor circuit to determine spatial indicia for a visual portion or element of multimedia content for presentation on a digital display, the multimedia content comprising visual content and audio content. The audio alignment module may be further operative to identify an audio signal corresponding to the visual portion or element and send the identified audio signal to one or more audio output devices based on a spatial correlation between the one or more audio output devices and the determined spatial indicia of the visual portion or element.
