Samsung patents smart audio switching between multiple connected devices

1. An electronic apparatus comprising: a communication interface; memory storing instructions; and at least one processor, wherein the instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the electronic apparatus to: based on first audio data and a first play start signal corresponding to the first audio data being received from a first device through the communication interface, cause the first audio data to be output, based on second audio data and a second play start signal corresponding to the second audio data being received from a second device through the communication interface while the first audio data is being output, cause the output of the first audio data to stop and cause the second audio data to be output, based on the output of the second audio data ending, transmit a signal requesting playing of the first audio data to the first device through the communication interface, based on a second first play start signal being received through the communication interface subsequent to the transmitting of the signal requesting playing of the first audio data, cause the first audio data to be output, based on a play stop signal corresponding to the second audio data being received from the second device through the communication interface within a first time from when the output of the second audio data is started, cause the output of the second audio data to stop, based on the second play start signal and the second audio data being received from the second device through the communication interface, identify whether the second audio data is an alarm type based on at least one from among the second audio data or history information corresponding to the second device, based on the second audio data being identified as the alarm type, identify whether the play stop signal is received from the second device through the communication interface during the first time, and based on identifying that the play stop signal was received during the first time, transmit the signal requesting the playing of the first audio data to the first device through the communication interface.
