Abstract:
A hearing assistive device has an input transducer ( 12 ) converting sound into an audio signal applied to a processor ( 14; 65 ). The processor ( 14; 65 ) is configured to compensate a hearing loss of a user of the hearing assistive device and to output a compensated audio signal. An output transducer ( 16; 65 ) converts the compensated audio signal into sound. The hearing assistive device ( 10 ) further comprises a wireless transceiver ( 21 ) enabling audio streaming from an external device ( 30 ) to the hearing assistive device, an attenuator ( 23 ) associated with said processor ( 14; 65 ) applying attenuation to the compensated audio signal, and an audio stream analyzer ( 22 a ) classifying the audio stream received via said wireless transceiver. The attenuator ( 23 ) is controlled in accordance to the audio stream classification from the audio stream analyzer ( 22 a ). The invention further provides a method of operating a hearing assistive device.

Claim (Index 7):
The hearing assistive device according to  claim 1 , wherein the output from the sound dosimeter ( 26 ;  69 ) is compared with one or more predefined thresholds, and the attenuation applied to the compensated audio signal depends on the comparison.
