:beetle: Description

I want sound not from main speaker, but from ear one. :beetle: What have you tried? I've tried Sound.setCategory('Playback'); With all of the categories, Alarm makes sound twice quite but still not from speakerphone i want.

There is closed request which says I should use Sound.setCategory('Playback'); :beetle: Please post your code: import Sound from 'react-native-sound'; Sound.setCategory('Playback');

const [voice] = useState( new Sound(message, () => { if (!timeout) { setTimeoutValue(setInterval(() => { voice.getCurrentTime((pos) => { setCounter(Math.floor((voice.getDuration() - pos) * 10)); }); }, 500)); } }), );

const play = (): void => { voice.play(() => voice.release()); };

// Please post your code

Sound.setCategory('Voice'); is what does the trick. It is not documented anywhere but it worked for me.

I believe it works because of https://github.com/zmxv/react-native-sound/blob/1aa45f25c8c03ea5c17fac18564c3928bd023113/android/src/main/java/com/zmxv/RNSound/RNSoundModule.java#LL88C1-L88C1 for Android while for iOS the default is to play through the ear speaker.
