# PlaybackInterruptionEvent


Event sent from Amazon Lex V2 to indicate to the client application should stop playback of audio. For example, if the client is playing a prompt that asks for the user's telephone number, the user might start to say the phone number before the prompt is complete. Amazon Lex V2 sends this event to the client application to indicate that the user is responding and that Amazon Lex V2 is processing their input.
