AudioPlayer cannot find sounds

[Waverider57]

Can we access your project?

• I give permission for members of the FlutterFlow team to access and test my project for the sole purpose of investigating this issue.

Current Behavior

If I create a custom code called playSound using the import 'package:audioplayers/audioplayers.dart'; and try to run it, it cannot find my sound files.

Expected Behavior

I expect the custom code to play my music file in the background.

Steps to Reproduce

Create a new project
Add the audioplayers library version 6.0.0 to dependencies

Create the following custom code called playSound:

// Automatic FlutterFlow imports
import '/flutter_flow/flutter_flow_theme.dart';
import '/flutter_flow/flutter_flow_util.dart';
import '/custom_code/actions/index.dart'; // Imports other custom actions
import '/flutter_flow/custom_functions.dart'; // Imports custom functions
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
// Begin custom action code
// DO NOT REMOVE OR MODIFY THE CODE ABOVE!

import 'package:audioplayers/audioplayers.dart';

Future playSound(
String audioPath,
bool isUrl,
) async {
AudioPlayer player;

// Add your function code here!
audioPath = 'assets/audios/ocean_waves.mp3';

try {
// Validate input
if (audioPath.isEmpty) {
print('Error: Audio path is empty');
return false;
}

// Create audio player instance
player = AudioPlayer();

if (isUrl) {
  // Play from URL
  print('Attempting to play from URL: $audioPath');
  await player.play(UrlSource(audioPath));
  print('URL audio played successfully');
} else {
  // Play from assets
  //String fullPath = audioPath.startsWith('assets/')
  //    ? audioPath
  //    : 'assets/audios/$audioPath';

  //String assetSourcePath =
  //    fullPath.startsWith('assets/') ? fullPath.substring(7) : fullPath;

  print('Attempting to play from assets: $audioPath');
  await player.play(AssetSource(audioPath));
  print('Asset audio played successfully');
}

return true;

} catch (e, stackTrace) {
print('Error playing sound: $e');
print('Stack trace: $stackTrace');
return false;
}
}

On page load, call the custom code playSound.
It will not find the music file.

Hello! 👋

For Custom Code actions, widgets, or functions, we recommend downloading your project locally to debug it properly. This allows you to check why a specific asset may not be loading correctly.

Please note that the FlutterFlow editor might not always compile custom code perfectly on the platform, but it should work as expected when compiled locally or built for the app stores.

Just a quick reminder — this GitHub issue tracker is intended for reproducible bugs related to FlutterFlow’s core features. In this case, it looks more like a support request related to your custom code implementation.
