Description

Hi !
We've have integrated react-native-incall-manager in your app, that's a great lib !

We digged a little bit to know why the MediaButton wasn't called during a call (when hanging up a call from a car for instance).

We found that due to startBluetoothSco the device is considered by android like an simple speaker and the hangup button of the bluetooth device will only disconnect the audio channel.

We found the same issue here and here.

As a workaround the have to listen to onAudioDeviceChanged and check that the change from selectedAudioDevice has changed from BLUETOOTH to EARPIECE without any interaction in our app (so we are sur that the device is disconnected from the hangup button).

Research direction

Start with android/src/main/java/com/zxcpoiu/incallmanager/AppRTC/AppRTCBluetoothManager.java around startBluetoothSco at line 328, then trace the MediaButton and onAudioDeviceChanged behavior. Reproduce a Bluetooth headset hangup during a call; done when the hangup is handled as the expected media-button event rather than only disconnecting the audio channel.
