DESCRIPTION:
OSM Scout and Pure Maps applications are using “navigator” audio (resource?) class by setting NEMO_RESOURCE_CLASS_OVERRIDE
environment variable. With this resource class, music player is paused when application is playing voice instructions, and resumed after. But this resource class also affects pulseaudio routing. Navigation instructions are played via phone speakers even bluetooth headphones are connected (or car speakers are connected via bluetooth). But music is routed via headphones / car speakers properly.
When “game” resource class is used, voice instructions are routed to bluetooth headphones properly and even music player is paused and resumed properly. But using “game” class sounds weird for map/navigation software.
Routing may be fixed easily. It is just necessary to add route_audio
flag to navigator
group in /etc/pulse/xpolicy.conf
:
[group]
name = navigator
flags = set_sink, set_source, route_audio
sink = droid.output.media_latency@equals:"true"
source = droid.input.builtin@equals:"true"
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
- pair and connect bluetooth heaphones
- play some music in Media application, it should be routed via bluetooth
- open OSM Scout, settings page…
- download some navigation voice
- select voice, play sample - it is routed to phone speaker
EXPECTED RESULT:
- should be routed to bluetooth headphones
ACTUAL RESULT:
- voice is routed to phone speakers
