Claim 0:
1. A method comprising:
receiving, by a voice-controlled device, first input audio data representing an utterance;
determining that a first wakeword was represented in the first input audio data, wherein the first wakeword corresponds to a first speech-processing system and wherein the voice-controlled device is configured to identify first audio from at least a first microphone representing the first wakeword;
in response to determining that the first wakeword corresponds to the first speech-processing system, sending first data representing at least a portion of the utterance to the first speech-processing system to cause the first speech-processing system to generate first output audio data representing second audio of a natural language command corresponding to the portion of the utterance, wherein the second audio was not included in the utterance;
receiving, from the first speech-processing system in response to the first data, the first output audio data;
receiving, by the voice-controlled device and from the first speech-processing system in response to the first data, second data directing the voice-controlled device to send the first output audio data to a second speech-processing system; and
in response to receiving the second data, sending the first output audio data to the second speech-processing system to cause the second speech-processing system to perform speech processing on the first output audio data to determine a response to the natural language command.
