Abstract: Improved approaches for providing a speaker within a housing of a portable electronic device are disclosed. The housing of the portable electronic device can be compact, such as a low profile housing. In one embodiment, an acoustic chamber for a speaker can be formed internal to a housing for a portable electronic device using non-dedicated space. In another embodiment, irregular surfaces can be sealed so that an acoustic chamber for a speaker can be formed internal to a housing for a portable electronic device.

Abstract: Methods and systems that facilitate enhanced media capabilities for electronic devices. The enhanced media capabilities enable electronic devices to provide voice calling with concurrent audio playback. The audio playback can originate at the electronic device itself or can be transmitted to the electronic device as part of or together with the voice calling. In addition, the enhanced media capabilities can also provide users of electronic devices with acoustic separation (e.g., spatial positioning) of audio currently provided from a voice call and from audio playback. Still further, the enhanced media capabilities can also provide users of electronic devices with acoustic separation (e.g., spatial positioning) of participants in multi-party calls.
