can you be more specific? which SDK/platform are you referring to. is there a bug filed?

Im using JS sdk. In chromium based browsers there are restriction for autoplaying audio tags. And i see that error sometimes in my app that audio can be played only using user gestures

Did you check out Audio playback docs ?

Nope. I had missed this. Sorry for taking your time 🙏

it shouldn't do that.. can you turn on debug logging

setLogLevel('debug')

and post the client logs that you see when new participants join?

please include the full logs from when the first participant joined. Uploading to a Github gist (or something similar) would be helpful.

thanks, it does appear to be firing

audioPlaybackChanged

multiple times on this browser/OS, could you file an GH issue in client-sdk-js repo? Please include repro steps (or a snippet of code that could reproduce the issue). Thanks!

can you specify which app you are using to test? is this our example app?

yes

Please indicate that in the issue. Having no reproduction steps will make it unlikely for the engineers to know what to do with the ticket.

Have edited the issue https://github.com/livekit/client-sdk-js/issues/447

thanks! we will take a look

Was this reproducible ?

not able to reproduce the issue you'd reported, but we are seeing some other strange behaviors on MS Edge mobile.

Sure thank you

Hi Karthik, just to set expectations on timing. This is an open source community, and we try to help everyone to the best of our abilities. However, this isn't a commercial support channel where there are guarantees around resolution or when we will be able to get to it. If the issue is urgent, I would suggest trying to play with the code base and see if you can make progress on it. (one benefit of open source!)

Got it 👍

it's implemented in this PR

Im not good at typescript and i've never worked on an open source project so i wouldn't be able to do a PR now. But i'll look forward to do it anyway in the future as it is an interesting project.

ah ha, that's a great workaround. thank you for sharing!
