Future Enhancement Suggestion: Ring/Alarm sounds always to external speaker [even if earbuds plugged in]
-
Hello fellow UTers!
Overall, I've had an amazing and fantastic experience using Ubuntu Touch and I plan on staying on the platform for the long term. Thank you for everything you do to contribute to Ubuntu Touch and making it what it is.
I wanted to share one minor improvement suggestion for future consideration. This is for the Ring and Alarm sounds to be always sent to external speaker. I noticed when I have my 3.5mm earbuds plugged in I missed a call or an alarm because the sound was going to the earbuds (but I didn't have them in my ear ... and as a result, missed the call or alarm because I didn't hear it). It would be nice for the Ring and Alarm sounds to always go to external speaker regardless if earbuds are plugged in or not.
Not sure if there is already a way to do this (and I just missed it) or if this is a difficult change or not.
In the meantime, as a workaround, I make sure to physically unplug my earbuds if I'm not actively using the phone. This way, I don't miss the ring or alarm. Then, just plug in my earbuds as needed.
Thank you for all the hard work you do and for even considering a potential future consideration.
