There's no rollback procedure in case a device switch fails right now,
nor does the code entrypoints that call the switching procedures wait
for resolution or failure before marking the new device as chosen. That
may cause inconsistent states in a couple of ways:
- No rollback: switch fails, audio is still on but no actual
microphone input is being transmitted
- Not waiting for resolutions: inconsistent chosen devices on failures
Device switching errors are also not surfaced to the end user
This commit:
- Adds device rollback and proper resolution/failure response
awaits to try and make the state a bit more consistent.
- Centralizes the input device switching code to be reused between
different bridges
- Centralizes device ID state management in audio-manager to try and
mantain them a bit more consistent across the board
- Surface device switching failures to the end user
- Guarantee device IDs are set to the session storage on all
appropriate scenarios
The initial selected output device in AudioSettings could be the wrong one if
the user's session had an output device ID already stored, but is joining on a
new session. That would cause the remote-media tag not to be updated with the
correct output device ID when it should (the service.js change)
The issue is tackled by guaranteeing the output device ID is set on all ends
when AudioSettings/AudioModal mounts.
public.media.showVolumeMeterInSettings => public.media.showVolumeMeter
public.media.simplifiedEchoTest => public.media.localEchoTest.enabled
Initial hearing state can be configured in public.media.localEchoTest.initialHearingState
New features:
- A simplified echo test mode that only does a local loopback (instead of
going to FS and back)
- A volume meter for microphone streams to the AudioSettings view
Those two features are experimental and disabled by default; see
public.app.media.simplifiedEchoTest and public.app.media.showVolumeMeter configs
Collateral changes:
- fix: localize fallback device strings in AudioSettings/DeviceSelector
- Refactor on some media stream utils to be re-usable across components
- Refactor in AudioSettings to keep gUM #uses stable.
* TODO: need to pass streams through AudioManager to avoid the surplus gUM.
- fix(audio): drop ScriptProcessorNode usage (deprecated)
* Used in volume meter for tracking - use hark instead
When joining breakouts, we now wait for the bridge to be loaded before
automatically start user's audio.
This problems happens only on fullaudio bridge
Allow listenonly users to change output devices
Fixed dynamic audio device change for firefox
Fixed shortcuts for audio join/leave
Show (with a bold font) the current selected device
[performance] Prevent calling mediaDevices.enumerateDevices every time we render
the selector. This adds a delay (~200ms, on my chrome setup) to render this component
[performance] Do not call enumerateDevices to search for new devices, instead we listen on mediaDevices.deviceChange event
Small refactoring and fixed a few errors that were being throw in browser's console
Fixed device selection when this is done in audio-settings modal
Fallback to default device when current device is removed
Truncate device name length
Renamed "Input","Output" labels to "Microphone","Speakers", respectively
Update eslint rule for accessKey
Currently this information is lost everytime breakout-room component is
unmounted, causing the panel to shows wrong information during next renders
Fixes#11333
After audio reconnection, a muted user would have it's microphone unmuted by default, unless muteOnStart is set to true. This fix this problem.
Fixes#9016
As explained in #11143, disabling audio filters is desired in some scenarios.
This basically adds an option for user to disable default constraints.
When user doesn't change this value in Settings > Application, the default
value for each audio constraints is retrieved from settings.yml.
When user changes this value in Settings > Application, audio
filters (AGC, Noise Supression and Echo Cancellation) are all set to
true/false, according to the value selected in the Settings GUI.
To start it simple, we decided to not to add a different setting in the GUI for
each audio contraint. This may be added in the future, though (perhaps in a
dedicated Audio Settings tab)
This is related to #4873

When refusing ("thumbs down" button) echo test, user is able to select a different input device. This should work fine for chrome, firefox and safari (once user grants permission when asked by html5client).
For output devices, we depend on setSinkId function, which is enabled by default on current chrome release (2020) but not in Firefox (user needs to enable "setSinkId in about:config page). This implementation is listed as (?) in MDN.
In other words, output device selection should work out of the box for chrome, only.
When selecting an outputDevice, all alert sounds (hangup, screenshare , polling, etc) also goes to the same output device.
This solves #10592
