An example apparatus for detecting loudspeaker faults includes a switch detector to detect that a loudspeaker fault detection switch is enabled. The apparatus also includes an audio receiver to receive an echo energy threshold and audio from a microphone in a test area. The apparatus further includes an audio analyzer to detect that the echo energy threshold is not exceeded by an acoustic echo in the captured audio. The apparatus includes a fault generator to generate a loudspeaker fault in response to detecting the acoustic echo does not exceed the echo energy threshold.
