Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for maintaining a temperature of an audio device during playback of audio content without audio interference. An embodiment operates by receiving a data stream comprising audio content for playback. The audio device determines a volume level of the audio content using the data stream. The audio device then controls a cooling device based on the volume level compared to a threshold value. This reduces the amount of time the cooling device is turned on during playback of the audio content. This reduces audio interference, improves the user playback experience, and prevents overheating of the audio device which improves reliability and reduces audio device failure rate.
