I am using the Android Management API for devices used in Care Homes. The requirement is that the devices are locked down to a standard that means users cannot mess about with the device, but gives them enough access to the apps they need to do their work.
The issue I face is that the users require the devices to have multiple applications on them - 2 to 3 apps - and one of those applications is an alert system that warns users that someone requires assistance in another room. This system triggers a notification alert on the device.
The issue i face is as follows; - The device needs to be in Kiosk mode to restrict access to settings and the likes - When the device is in kiosk mode, notification sounds are not played. - How can I enable notification sounds using the Android Management API for applications that are accessible in kiosk mode and trigger notifications alerts?
You can use MediaPlayer as the notification sound, by starting a Service that play's the MediaPlayer when the notification is shown.
