Original Abstract Submitted
To optimize audio quality of playback with other audio in calls established using an audio-visual conferencing service, at least two audio profiles for one or more audio playback devices connectable to the apparatus are maintained for the audio-visual conferencing service. The at least two audio profiles comprise a first audio profile for at least transmitting audio of a first quality for playback and a second audio profile for at least transmitting audio of a second quality for playback. It is allowed to change an active audio profile during a call established using the audio-visual conferencing service by switching the active audio profile between at least the first audio profile and the second audio profile. The received audio in the call is delivered to the audio playback device according to the active audio profile.
