A system automatically controls an electronic device's audio by detecting an active sound source presence within an auditory detection space. The system transitions the electronic device to selectively output a desired sound when the active sound source presence is detected and detects sound in the auditory detection space. The system enhances sound and transforms it into electrical signals. The system converts the electrical signals into a digital signal and identifies active sound segments in the digital signals. The system attenuates noise components in the digital signals and locates the physical location of the active sound source. It adjusts an output automatically by muting a second sound source in a second detection space.
