1. An electronic device, comprising:
- a sound input module configured to input a voice input;
an illumination sensor;
a proximity sensor; and
a controller configured to control the voice input to an active state when detecting occurrence of an event to be notified to a user, whereinthe controller is configured to control the voice input to an inactive state based on a state of the electronic device determined through the illumination sensor or the proximity sensor, andthe controller is further configured to,when detecting that a headset configured to input a voice input is connected to the electronic device,control the voice input through the headset to an active state, regardless of the state of the electronic device determined through the illumination sensor or the proximity sensor.

6. A control method for controlling an electronic device with a sound input module configured to input a voice input, an illumination sensor, and a proximity sensor, the control method comprising:
-
detecting occurrence of an event to be notified to a user; controlling the voice input to an active state when the occurrence of the event is detected; controlling the voice input to an inactive state based on a state of the electronic device determined through the illumination sensor or the proximity sensor; and when detecting that a headset configured to input a voice input is connected to the electronic device, controlling the voice input through the headset to an active state, regardless of the state of the electronic device determined through the illumination sensor or the proximity sensor.

7. A non-transitory storage medium that stores a control program that causes, when executed by an electronic device with a sound input module configured to input a voice input, an illumination sensor, and a proximity sensor, the electronic device to execute:
-
detecting occurrence of an event to be notified to a user; controlling the voice input to an active state when the occurrence of the event is detected; controlling the voice input to an inactive state based on a state of the electronic device determined through the illumination sensor or the proximity sensor; and when detecting that a headset configured to input a voice input is connected to the electronic device, controlling the voice input through the headset to an active state, regardless of the state of the electronic device determined through the illumination sensor or the proximity sensor.
