A vehicle includes an interface device, an in-vehicle control unit, a functional unit, and a processing circuitry. The interface device receives a spoken command to identify an in-cabin vehicle zone of two or more in-cabin vehicle zones of the vehicle, and receives background audio data concurrently with a portion of the spoken command. The in-cabin vehicle control unit separates the background audio data from the spoken command, and selects which in-cabin vehicle zone of the two or more in-cabin vehicle zones is identified by the spoken command. The functional unit controls a function within the vehicle. The processing circuitry stores, to a command buffer, data processed from the received spoken command, and controls, based on the data processed from the received spoken command, the functional unit using audio input received from the selected in-cabin vehicle zone.
