[RNIB New Use Case] 4.20 Mono audio option #23

Open RealJoshue108 opened 4 years ago

Filed on behalf of RNIB: Original comments sent to APA list

Here is a new suggested use case:

4.20 Mono audio option User Need 19: Users with hearing loss in just one ear may miss information in a stereo or binaural soundscape.

REQ 19a: Allow mono audio sound to be sent to both headphones so that the user can perceive the whole soundscape through either ear.

Thanks @Raisonali - we have discussed the issue of mono and the need for it to be explicitly mentioned in XAUR

https://www.w3.org/2020/04/29-rqtf-minutes.html

and agree mono requirements should be included - there is a related issue file here w3c/xaur#33

This suggested text is helpful.

@Raisonali also note the Apple Mono requirements for iOS which is helpful https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/iphone/iph3e2e2cdc/ios
