I am having a problem with flite running on an app in the background.
As suggested by others, I tried setting AV Category to ‘AVAudioSessionCategoryPlayback’ with categoryOption to ‘AVAudioSessionCategoryOptionMixWithOthers’
However, the Flite controller always reset the audio session to PlayAndRecord.
As a result, it won’t do TTS when entering background thread.
This is running on an iPhone 5 with IOS6.
I also added the background modes ‘app play audio’ in plist.
[log output below]
Please help.
Thanks,
