🐛 [firebase_messaging] playing sound when phone is in silent mode or vibrate mode

[priyesh-bit]

Bug report

Describe the bug
Ive added push notification custom sound and issue is sound is playing when phone is in silent mode or vibrate mode.

Steps to reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Ive added .wav file into raw and given NotificationManager.IMPORTANCE_HIGH | NotificationManager.IMPORTANCE_DEFAULT

MainActivity.kt

import android.app.NotificationChannel
import android.app.NotificationManager
import android.media.AudioAttributes
import android.net.Uri
import android.os.Build
import io.flutter.embedding.android.FlutterActivity
import io.flutter.embedding.engine.FlutterEngine


class MainActivity : FlutterActivity() {
    override fun configureFlutterEngine(flutterEngine: FlutterEngine) {
        super.configureFlutterEngine(flutterEngine)
        if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.O) {
            val soundUri = Uri.parse("android.resource://" + applicationContext.packageName + "/" + R.raw.notification)
            val audioAttributes = AudioAttributes.Builder()
                    .setContentType(AudioAttributes.CONTENT_TYPE_SONIFICATION)
                    .setUsage(AudioAttributes.USAGE_ALARM)
                    .build()

            val channel = NotificationChannel("high_importance_channel",
                    "High Importance Notifications", NotificationManager.IMPORTANCE_HIGH)
            channel.setSound(soundUri, audioAttributes)
            val notificationManager = getSystemService<NotificationManager>(NotificationManager::class.java)
            notificationManager.createNotificationChannel(channel)
        }
    }
}

main.dart

FirebaseMessaging.onBackgroundMessage(_firebaseMessagingBackgroundHandler);

  channel = AndroidNotificationChannel(
    'high_importance_channel',
    'High Importance Notifications',
    description: 'This channel is used for important notifications.',
    playSound: true,
    enableLights: true,
    sound: RawResourceAndroidNotificationSound('notification'),
  );

  flutterLocalNotificationsPlugin = FlutterLocalNotificationsPlugin();

  const AndroidInitializationSettings initializationSettingsAndroid =
      AndroidInitializationSettings('@drawable/ic_notification');
  final IOSInitializationSettings initializationSettingsIOS =
      IOSInitializationSettings(
          onDidReceiveLocalNotification: onDidReceiveLocalNotification);
  final InitializationSettings initializationSettings = InitializationSettings(
      android: initializationSettingsAndroid, iOS: initializationSettingsIOS);
  flutterLocalNotificationsPlugin.initialize(initializationSettings,
      onSelectNotification: (String? payload) async {
    print("onSelectNotification Called");
    if (payload != null) {
      PushNotificationResponse pushData =
          pushNotificationResponseFromJson(payload);
      handleLocalNotificationClick(pushData);
    }
  });

  await flutterLocalNotificationsPlugin
      .resolvePlatformSpecificImplementation<
          AndroidFlutterLocalNotificationsPlugin>()
      ?.createNotificationChannel(channel);

  await FirebaseMessaging.instance.setForegroundNotificationPresentationOptions(
    alert: true,
    badge: true,
    sound: true,
  );

  FirebaseMessaging.onMessage.listen((RemoteMessage message) {
    print("onMessage Called");
    PushNotificationResponse pushData =
        pushNotificationResponseFromMap(message.data);
   (notification != null && android != null) {
      flutterLocalNotificationsPlugin.show(
        notification.hashCode,
        notification.title,
        notification.body,
        NotificationDetails(
          android: AndroidNotificationDetails(
            channel.id,
            channel.name,
            icon: '@drawable/ic_notification',
            playSound: true,
            color: ColorRes.primaryColor,
            enableLights: true,
            sound: RawResourceAndroidNotificationSound('notification'),
          ),
          iOS: IOSNotificationDetails(
            presentSound: true,
            presentBadge: true,
            presentAlert: true,
          ),
        ),
        payload: pushNotificationResponseToJson(pushData),
      );
    }
  });

  FirebaseMessaging.onMessageOpenedApp.listen((RemoteMessage message) async {
    print("onMessageOpenedApp Called ");
  });

  FirebaseMessaging.instance
      .getInitialMessage()
      .then((RemoteMessage? message) async {
    print("getInitialMessage Called ");
  });

2. Sending push notification using API

{
    "to" : "FCM TOKEN",
    "data":{
        "body":"Test Notification !!!",
        "title":"Test Title !!!"
    },
    "notification":{
      "sound":"notification",
      "title":"My Title",
      "body":"My body"
   }
}

3. See incorrect behavior about notification sound

Expected behavior

It should not play sound while silent mode

Let me know if im missing anything.

@priyesh-bit
Are you using a custom sound ? If so, can you check if you are hitting this issue ?

[priyesh-bit]

@darshankawar Ive already gone through this, but in my sound is coming very well but sound is also coming when phone is in silent mode.

sound : default behaviour is working very well (normal/silent/vibrate)

[darshankawar]

@priyesh-bit
What Android device and OS version you see this behavior on ?
Can you also try upgrading the framework to latest stable (2.8.1) and check ?

[priyesh-bit]

Device info: Nokia C01 Plus - Android 11

[darshankawar]

Thanks. Keeping it open and labeling it for further inputs.
