bug: sound is muted in android app [released]
On a shiny afternoon my Jolla has stopped to play sounds from the android game I play (Cut the rope) I have found no workaround to turn it back, even tried restarting, turning sound in app on-off several times, turning my phone to silence and vica versa, but no hope.
What can I do?
@Neo, same issue and same solution applied

Sailfish Volume was muted too, but could be upvolumed again with the buttons - not so with all the Android Apps - they are all muted now. Rebooting didn't fix the problem.
bronco_at_jolla ( 2014-01-06 01:03:01 +0200 )editI had the same problem yesterday. My Android podcast client DoggCatcher went crazy and couldn't play anything. It just stopped directly after pressing play. Later I noticed that none of my Android apps could produce any sound I tried to reboot, but without success. I upgraded DoggCatcher, didn't help. I reinstalled it, didn't help. But after a lot of fiddling the sound was back on all apps. Not sure what did it.

avdwoude ( 2014-03-20 09:55:47 +0200 )editAccording to the changelog this issue should be fixed in 1.0.5.16, which says "Android audio volume normalized" under the Android runtime section. Please close the question, unless somebody still has an issue after upgrading.
