Description

Hi,

Great work on the librepods project! I noticed that hearing aid mode doesn't work for playing music. On iphone we can chose if we want to amplify only when in transparency mode, or if we want to also amplify music or calls and facetime. But when i tried to play with librepods hearing aid mode i only hear that transparency mode is amplified, without music when its played. As somebody with hearing impairment i would love to at least hear some of music in my right ear. I would greatly appreciate if you looked on this issue.

Thanks in advance,
Lucjan

Edit: I tested this on linux, built today (22 Dec) from source.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the hearing aid mode and music audio paths in the Linux implementation, then compare how transparency audio is amplified. Done means music is also amplified in the affected ear when hearing aid mode is enabled, with behavior checked on Linux.
