Abstract
An electronic device automatically adjusts an output signal emanating from an output of the device. The device includes a telephony interface for receiving a telephony transmission. The device detects a ring signal from the telephony transmission, and automatically adjusts the output signal of the device. The adjusted output signal can be used to notify an operator of a detected ring signal or to attenuate the output signal of the device to allow for ease of hearing the telephone transmission. In one embodiment, the device can automatically restore the output signal following completion of the telephone transmission or an action by a user of the electronic device.
