iOS: Video does not play sound in silent mode.

Expo SDK

I’m trying to play video using a <Video> element with sound enabled, but this does not work in iOS in silent mode.

I’ve configured Audio so that playsInSilentModeIOS is set to true, but this doesn’t seem to have any effect:

const setAudioMode = async () => {
    await Audio.setAudioModeAsync({
      playsInSilentModeIOS: true,
      allowsRecordingIOS: false,
      staysActiveInBackground: false,
      interruptionModeIOS: Audio.INTERRUPTION_MODE_IOS_DO_NOT_MIX,
    });
  };

React.useEffect(setAudioMode, []);

Here’s a simple Snack that demonstrates this:

SDK Version: 41
Platforms: iOS
