[QUESTION]: No sound in Windows Release Version

[michaelniedermayr]

I have an app that loads a sound file from the assets folder and plays it. If I run the Windows version of this app in Android Studio, everything works well and I can hear the sound. However, if I run the release version (opening the exe-file in build/windows/runner/Release), there is no sound. First, I assumed that maybe the assets are not loaded properly in the release version but this is not the case since the local image are correctly displayed.

Do I miss something?

I found the problem. I used DeviceFileSource() to load the asset. That works when app is started from Android Studio. However, the proper way to load assets is AssetSource().

AudioPlayer().play(AssetSource(asset);
