arXiv:2605.23954v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Audio Large Language Models (ALLMs) are highly vulnerable to real-world noise, which often induces severe semantic drift and hallucinations. Existing robustness methods primarily rely on waveform-level acoustic enhancement, answer-level supervision, or the internal suppression of noise representations. To address these issues, we propose echodistill, an alignment-based noisy-to-clean self-distillation framework. Echodistill leverages a frozen clean-audio teacher to provide semantic references for an inference-time noisy-audio student. Specificall
