Same issue but with ByteSource: Flutter 3.19.5 audioplayers 6.0.0 iOS: 17.4

"PlatformException (PlatformException(DarwinAudioError, Failed to set source. For troubleshooting, see https://github.com/bluefireteam/audioplayers/blob/main/troubleshooting.md, AVPlayerItem.Status.failed on setSourceUrl: Unknown error, null))"

I'm encountering the same error: PlatformException(DarwinAudioError, Failed to set source. For troubleshooting, see https://TROUBLESHOOTING_GUIDE, AVPlayerItem.Status.failed on setSourceUrl: Unknown error, null) This issue occurs when I attempt to play audio using BytesSource on iOS. Working on Android, but failing on iOS.

Flutter 3.19.6 audioplayers 6.0.0 iOS: 17.4

I've found a solution, we must provide the mimeType.

Sample.

    await _audioPlayer.play(
      BytesSource(bytes, mimeType: 'audio/mp3'),
    );

It would be nice to handle this case directly within the BytesSource class if the mimeType is empty.

I am having a similar issue but it seems to be kind of random. I made this change f15b414135039b72760a908b95c01aa8c9da6422 so I can see the error.

AudioPlayers Exception: AudioPlayerException(
    AssetSource(path: sounds/pop.wav, mimeType: null), 
    PlatformException(DarwinAudioError, Failed to set source. For troubleshooting, see https://github.com/bluefireteam/audioplayers/blob/main/troubleshooting.md, AVPlayerItem.Status.failed on setSourceUrl: Error Domain=AVFoundationErrorDomain Code=-11819 "Cannot Complete Action" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Cannot Complete Action, NSLocalizedRecoverySuggestion=Try again later.}, null)<…>

The error is: Error Domain=AVFoundationErrorDomain Code=-11819 "Cannot Complete Action" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Cannot Complete Action, NSLocalizedRecoverySuggestion=Try again later.

The code I used is loading about 30 tracks using this code, but the issue does not always occur.

_audioContext =AudioContextConfig(respectSilence: Platform.isIOS).build();

var player = AudioPlayer();
await player.setReleaseMode(ReleaseMode.stop);
await player.setAudioContext(_audioContext);
await player.setVolume(volume);
await player.setSource(AssetSource('sounds/$filePath'));
