Hi, i never thought about this situation. Let's pretend that it is a bug. In few days i will try to find some time and check how we can handle this situation.

Hi, just checked on my iPhones safari browser.
It seems to be working correctly, sounds are playing only if the silent mode is off.

Please provide more info about your testing environment.

Im testing it on a Samsung Galaxy A5, Android 4.4.4.

 ion.sound({
                sounds: [
                    {name: 'pop_hi'}
                ],

                // main config
                path: '/assets/audio/pop_hi/',
                preload: true,
                multiplay: true,
                volume: 1
            });

            var soundEveryButton = function () {
                ion.sound.play('pop_hi');
            };

Every time a user click on a button i call soundEveryButton it works but it works even when silent mode is on

Ok i will try on my Nexus. It has android 5.x.

Hello @IonDen did u make the test?

[IonDen]

Hi @CoericK
I made a test on Google Nexus 7 (Android 5.1.1) Latest Chrome Browser.
Everything seems to be ok. Sound volume is following device volume. I device is on zero volume, nothing to hear.

Maybe it is some Android 4.x bug. I don't know what to do more.
Besides, there is no way to know from browser device sound status. I din't found such APIs

Hi @IonDen Then what could be making my app behave on that way? Maybe i need to upgrade my library?

Sorry, but i have no more ideas.
