Ability to play sound from the earpiece

[jesusrp98]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Make possible to play audio from the device's earpiece (if available), rather than the main speaker.

Describe the solution you'd like
This is a sample implementation:

final service = AudioPlayer();
service.setSpeaker(AudioPlayerSpeaker.earpiece);
...

Maybe this needs to be implemented in audio_session.

Hey @ryanheise! This feature has now been implemented in the latest version of the audio_session package.

Could you take a look at this? The referenced issue is the one from the session package.

[ryanheise]

My thinking was that the appropriate location for this feature was the audio_session package rather than to implement it as a feature of just_audio. Are you able to achieve what you want by directly using audio_session?

@ryanheise I'm not the author of the issue, but I was indeed able to achieve my desired result by using audio_session together with just_audio

While it'd surely be convenient to have such functionality built-in just_audio itself, I see the point of it being just audio, to avoid any bloat in the code

I guess this issue can be closed

The only comment I might add is that it's worth to provide an example of using audio_session together with just_audio for less experienced developers, as I've seen a lot of people struggling with that in the comments of other issues

Thanks for letting me know of your success. Would you mind sharing your recipe notes here in this issue or in an issue on audio_session?
