Playing sounds with the speaker while monitoring sound level

Hello!

My app uses Ti.Media.startMicrophoneMonitor to monitor average ambient sound level. While this, I have to play some sound samples, which also work - but they are played only on the phone speaker (the small one on the top). (I had to use AUDIO_SESSION_MODE_PLAY_AND_RECORD to enable them.) How can I set Ti.Media.AUDIO_SPEAKER to use the bottom speaker instead?

Hi Kristof! I'm having the same problem... Here are some of my ideas on the subject, not sure if everything is 100% correct...

AUDIO_SESSION_MODE_PLAY_AND_RECORD ---->> will set Ti.Media.audioLineType = AUDIO_RECEIVER_AND_MIC (1) or if the headphones are plugged in AUDIO_HEADPHONES_AND_MIC (2)

---the sound comes from the top speaker, used for phone-calls, not the bottom speaker, therefore it sounds muted / you are supposed to have your ear at the top of the phone

---user can record sound from the mic at the bottom

AUDIO_SESSION_MODE_RECORD ----->> Ti.Media.audioLineType = AUDIO_MICROPHONE (6) -only mic is used, no speaker, no playback of the recorded audio

AUDIO_SESSION_MODE_AMBIENT ----->> Ti.Media.audioLineType = Ti.Media.AUDIO_LINEOUT (4) - sound comes from bottom speaker - -but no mic/recording option

...so it looks to me like there is no audio session which enables bottom speaker and mic, and I can't figure out how to set sound to come from bottom speaker while recording

here some 2 years old ideas

This seems to be an issue only on the iPhone. On iPad and iPod Touch the AUDIO_SESSION_MODE_PLAY_AND_RECORD should be enough.
