Try to use NativeAudio plugin (https://ionicframework.com/docs/native/native-audio/). It works really nice for me. Some example:

if (this.platform.is('cordova')) {
  this.nativeAudio.preloadSimple('chamada', 'assets/sounds/Umbriel.mp3');
  this.nativeAudio.loop('chamada');
}

In this case, nativeAudio is injected NativeAudio module. To stop it, I do:

  if (this.platform.is('cordova')) {
    this.nativeAudio.stop('chamada');
    this.nativeAudio.unload('chamada');
  }

You can check more options on documentation. Give it a try... good luck!
