The default camera application that comes with Sailfish OS doesn't handle selfie sticks properly that are connected through 3.5mm headphone jack. Some selfie stick triggers volume control when the capture button on the selfie stick is pressed, some sticks doesn't trigger anything. One such is Taotronics Selfie Monopod TT-SH012.

By design it doenst work. Selfie sticks should be banned.

If i'm not completely wrong, this is at least a kernel level incompatibility issue, if not even hardware level. So nothing much can be done.
If you would see BTN_0, BTN_1 or similar when pressing the trigger (or headset keys) you could use my buttonjack-daemon (made for oneplusx).
It will translate these these keypresses to mpris media controls, answer/hangup phone call etc.

Karthikeyan ( 2017-01-24 14:45:55 +0300 )editcorrect, nobody needed that in 4 years

pawel ( 2017-02-24 16:08:24 +0300 )editplease provide evdev_trace -t logs when pressing trigger on selfie stick.
kimmoli ( 2017-02-24 16:11:34 +0300 )editAnd if I where the developer with control over that, I wouldn't care either. Selfiestupidism...Ask someone nice to take a photo. If nobody want to do this for you, you are likely the reason.
