In some implementations, authentication tokens corresponding to known users of a device are stored on the device. An utterance from a speaker is received. The speaker of the utterance is classified as not a known user of the device. A query that includes the authentication tokens that correspond to known users of the device, a representation of the utterance, and an indication that the speaker was classified as not a known user of the device is provided to the server. A response to the query is received at the device and from the server based on the query.
