A method in a soundfield-capturing endpoint and the capturing endpoint that comprises a microphone array capturing soundfield, and an input processor pre-processing and performing auditory scene analysis to detect local sound objects and positions, de-clutter the sound objects, and integrate with auxiliary audio signals to form a de-cluttered local auditory scene that has a measure of plausibility and perceptual continuity. The input processor also codes the resulting de-cluttered auditory scene to form coded scene data comprising mono audio and additional scene data to send to others. The endpoint includes an output processor generating signals for a display unit that displays a summary of the de-cluttered local auditory scene and/or a summary of activity in the communication system from received data, the display including a shaped ribbon display element that has an extent with locations on the extent representing locations and other properties of different sound objects.
