1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
receiving input audio data representing an utterance, wherein the input audio data corresponds to a first device configured to operate in a first mode corresponding to coordinated audio output with a second device;
performing speech processing using the input audio data to determine output data responsive to the utterance; and
based at least in part on the speech processing, sending first data causing at least one of the first device or the second device to operate in a second mode corresponding to discontinuation of coordinated audio output.
