Error when putting the audios in cache in iOS. It makes them ring by caching them.

[Cubel89]

When putting a local file in cache, it is played automatically in iOS. (Later, the first call to the audio does not work, the following yes).

Full Description I have a loading page and I take advantage of that page to cache different local audios. On Android it caches them without problems, on iOS it plays them on the loading page all at once. On the next page, I make use of those audios. On Android they work perfectly, but on iOS, the first time I call the audio, it doesn't work. The second and subsequent times, yes.

Code to Reproduce

AudioPlayer _audioP1 = AudioPlayer(playerId: 'p1');
await _audioP1.setSource(AssetSource('audio/p1.wav'));

Platforms The problematic platform is iOS. On Android it works as expected. On the first page it caches it, on the second page it plays it every time it is called.

I have something like this happening to me as well for iOS / and MacOS. I am using some audiopool in my onload method and it will play all the sounds at once when I first load my flame game.

Same for me, as soon as I moved to flame_audio: 1.3.0 (which uses audioplayers 1.0.0), I also started facing this issue.

+1 for this issue on iOS using audioplayers version 1.0.1 on recent iOS devices (14.x+) including Simulators.

Once .setSourceAsset is called, sound is immediately played from device.

  static const soundFolder = "assets/sounds/";
  final AudioCache cache = AudioCache(prefix: soundFolder);
  final AudioPlayer player = AudioPlayer();
  player.audioCache = cache;
  player.setSourceAsset('some_sound.mp3');

Downgrading to audioplayers version 0.20.1 and using AudioCache class, this issue is not present.

+1 for this issue on iOS, plugin version 1.0.1. Also present on version 1.0.0.

I worked around this by adjusting the volume before and after setting the source.

AudioPlayer player = AudioPlayer();
AudioCache.instance.prefix = "assets/sounds/selected/";

if (Platform.isIOS) {
  await player.setVolume(0);
}
await player.setReleaseMode(ReleaseMode.stop);
await player.setSourceAsset("Simple_Button.wav");
if (Platform.isIOS) {
  await player.setVolume(1);
}
