In the simulator, everything works perfectly. However, once I run my app on my iPhone 4, as soon as pocket sphinx starts listening all the sounds play on an extremely low volume. When pocket sphinx stops, they are back on normal volume.
I checked the AVAudioPlayer volume property, it is set to 1.0 (as it should) even when pocket sphinx is listening. Similarly, the iPhone itself has speaker volume on maximum.
I also checked if I had multiple audio session managers starting, and I do not. Only one starts in the app delegate.
My AVAudioPlayers are created like this:
NSError *error;
NSString *path = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:file ofType:@”caf”];
NSURL *url = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:path];
audioPlayer = [[AVAudioPlayer alloc] initWithContentsOfURL:url error:&error];
if (audioPlayer == nil)
NSLog(@”Error: %@”, [error description]);
audioPlayer.volume = 1.0;
[audioPlayer setDelegate:self];
[audioPlayer prepareToPlay];
and they are inside their own objects that I created to hold them.
The play method is simply: [audioPlayer play];
I suspend recognition when a sound plays, and resume when it finishes.
Can you give me any insight as to why this would happen? It must be something that happens exclusively when running on a device, since the simulator works fine.
Thanks!

Welcome kasey,
I’ve never heard of this happening on a device as a result of using an AVAudioPlayer without there being a misconfigured AudioSessionManager, another audio session somewhere else in the app, or a different media object being used (such as AVPlayer). AVAudioPlayer is 100% compatible, since it is used for all Flite playback by OpenEars. My advice is to look for what is happening to the audio session. Have you confirmed that your AudioSessionManager instance is definitely getting started when the app loads? Can you replicate the identical volume issue when you use the sample app?

It turns out that I assumed that the AudioSessionManager was getting started, but I did a search in the log itself and realized that I completely forgot to allocate and initialize it.
I’m so sorry for bothering you, Halle! I feel like such an idiot now. Thanks so much for the help! You have such thorough and helpful instructions and examples!
