[iOS] Notification sound does not stop on cancelNotification()/cancelDisplayedNotification()

[marcjulianfleck]

If I trigger a notification on iOS from the setBackgroundMessageHandler() of Firebase with a custom sound - which is around 25 seconds - and after some time call notifee.cancelNotification("OWN_ID") or notifee.cancelDisplayedNotification("OWN_ID") the notification gets removed. However, the sound keeps playing till the end. On the other hand, if I press on the notification, the sound stops immediately.

This is how I display/start the notification:

notifee.displayNotification({
    id: "OWN_ID",
    title: "SOME_TITLE",
    body: ""SOME_BODY",
    ios: {
      sound: "customSound.mp3"
    }
});

Anybody solved this issue yet?

A quick search on this one indicates it may have different behavior depending on whether it is the simulator or a real device, and varying on iOS versions

@marcjulianfleck - can you specify the exact testing environment (versions, real device or simulator) when you see this behavior?

@mikehardy yes, I already saw a few similar issues on stackoverflow. However, it seems not be fixed after iOS 8.0 in my case.

My environment:

• iPhone X (real device) with iOS 14.7.1
• Notifee Version: 2.0.0
• react-native Version: 0.64.2
• react-native-firebase Version: 12.7.3 (In case it matters since I show the notification out of the BackgroundMessageHandler)

Mmm interesting, I think this is out of our control 😕
