Flutter Youtube player conflicts with livekit when open the mic

Thanks for reaching out, Ahmed. I'm an AI assistant and I'm here to help. Give me a moment while I research this topic.

audio and video stops - i"m using flutter Youtube player that runs browser embeded

Thanks — that helps. A few targeted questions to diagnose why the embedded YouTube audio stops when you open the mic: • Which platform(s) is this happening on: Android, iOS, or both? Include OS versions. • Flutter version, LiveKit Flutter SDK version, and which YouTube embed method/package you’re using. • Does audio stop only while the mic is opened, or also after you close it? • Are you using any explicit audio session/mode code before enabling the mic (for example iOS

AVAudioSession

or Android

AudioManager

)? • Does the embedded YouTube player use a WebView or platform browser view? Is it in the same Activity/ViewController as your LiveKit view? • Can you share any logs when the mic is opened (audio focus events, errors, or LiveKit debug logs)? • Quick confirmation: does pausing the YouTube player before opening the mic prevent the issue? Once you share those details I’ll suggest the most likely fixes (audio session configuration changes, setting proper audio routes/focus, or isolating the WebView). , with interactive elements

in ios and android - video and audio pause. and when I turn off mic it doesn't come back

Thanks — I know this is frustrating. To diagnose why the embedded YouTube (WebView) playback pauses on both iOS and Android when you open the mic and doesn't resume, I need a few concrete details and logs. Please provide: • Platform(s): confirm Android, iOS, and OS versions (e.g., Android 13, iOS 16). • Flutter version, LiveKit Flutter SDK version, and the YouTube embed package/method (e.g.,

webview_flutter

,

youtube_player_flutter

, or an iframe in a WebView). • Minimal code snippets: ◦ How you initialize/enable the LiveKit mic (the call/sequence that starts audio capture). ◦ How you embed the YouTube player/WebView (widget or Activity/ViewController setup). • Any audio session / audio focus code you set (iOS

AVAudioSession

config, Android

AudioManager

or

AudioFocusRequest

). • What exactly happens: does playback pause immediately when mic opens, and does it ever resume automatically or only after app restart? • Relevant logs when you open/close the mic (LiveKit debug logs, platform logs, WebView console logs, or any audio focus messages). • Quick test results: Does pausing the YouTube player before enabling mic avoid the problem? Does muting LiveKit (send-only) change behavior? With those details I can suggest targeted fixes (audio session modes, audio focus handling, or workarounds such as reloading/resuming the WebView playback after mic is closed). If you prefer, paste the minimal code and logs and I’ll point to the exact changes to try. , with interactive elements
