Playing sound problem when the video call has started

[sergiocarabantes]

Hi, I am trying to play a sound before the session has been connected but when it is connected and when I do session.subscribe(subscriber); inside of onStreamReceivedmethod, the sound stops unexpectedly. I am initializing the subscriber like this:

Subscriber subscriber = new Subscriber.Builder(context, stream).build(); subscriber.getRenderer().setStyle(BaseVideoRenderer.STYLE_VIDEO_SCALE, BaseVideoRenderer.STYLE_VIDEO_FILL); subscriber.setSubscribeToAudio(false); session.subscribe(subscriber);

Even disabling the audio from the subscriber setSubscribeToAudio(false) still the sounds stops. When the session has been finished, the sound starts playing again.

For some reasons, we need to play the sound even when the session is connected but I don't know why this problem is happening, do you have any idea? Thanks a lot.

Hi Sergio,

Have you taken a look to the Custom Audio Driver sample? I think you will have to take over the audio driver in order to coordinate playing sounds and communication mode.
