Abstract
As disclosed, a hearing prosthesis that receives audio provided by an external device will also receive from the external device a control signal that indicates one or more characteristics of the audio, such as a specification of a dynamic range of the audio content, a specification of latency-sensitivity of the audio content, or various other characteristics of the audio. The hearing prosthesis then responds to receipt of the control signal by automatically configuring its sound processor in a manner based at least in part on the indicated one or more characteristics of the audio content, to help facilitate processing of the received audio.
