In Android the notification triggers the sound, vibrate, etc. But indeed the problem is that this should happen (or not...), as I said, when it arrives at the notification tray.

Yes, the sounds can be defined by the app.

I didn't manage to make it work. Anyway I think it would be more "normal" a function like the one I sent. But, as I told before, the vibration and / or sound play only makes sense when the notification arrives in the notification area, not before I pressed on it. 

Mind for instance a geofenced notification:the user must see it at the moment it arrives, and not 30 minutes later. In this case the vibration or sound are very important.

Are there no "out-of-the-box" sounds for Android?

I thought the iOS sounds were not driven by the indiviual app.

Hi

The sound event when the notification arrives doesn't seem to work (at least on iPhone; Android not tested yet).

And yes: the sound plugin is installed and working just fine.

Besides, I don't understand quite well the way you build the event. Example given by you for Android:

var my_media = new Media("/android_asset/www/" + e.sound);

..What sound? I can have several sounds on a given folder...

I haven't play too much with sound but e.sound is supposed to contain the filename of your sound file (like beep.wav / sirene.wav ...)  

I think a better - and more trivial - approach would be something like this (just an opinion...):

if (e.sound) {

if (device.platform == "Android") {

media = new Media("/android_asset/www/beep.wav");

} else if (device.platform == "iOS") {

media = new Media("beep.wav"); // root directory

} 

media.play();    

          }

Thanks guys :-)
