Systems and methods are described for automatic processing state control of a microphone of a listening device. A signal is received. A first event is detected based on an analysis of the signal. A determination to enable processing of audio captured by a microphone of a listening device is made based at least on the detected first event. Responsive to said determination, a first command is transmitted to the listening device. The first command includes instructions to enable processing of the audio captured by the microphone. In a further aspect, a determination to cease processing of audio captured by the microphone is made based on a detected second event. Responsive to the determination to cease processing, a second command is transmitted to the listening device to cease processing audio captured by the microphone.
