Audio-volume in JS

Question

Hi,

I tried to lower the volume of my audio, and for some reason it works on PC but not on phones. Anyone got any idea why?

I used this:
myAudio.volume = 0.5

Even when setting volume to 0 it still plays on my phone.

Thanks in advance,
Joakim

Assuming Chromium webview: possibly a bug, not waiting for the element to actually start playing (simply telling it to play does not mean the object has updated; you may have to release the main thread [by falling off the end of your function] so events fire, then update the volume), etc.

This thread discusses a few related things + how to possibly avoid the 100% volume blip that may occur if you can't set the volume early enough:
