Switching between earpiece and speakerphone on button press

Question

I am trying to play audio from both the speakerphone and earpiece by having a button toggle between the two. The problem is that I am trying to default the audio to play fro

Answer 1

It turns out that I had set the mode wrong.

Here is the updated media player:

mediaPlayer = MediaPlayer.create(getActivity().getBaseContext(), R.raw.test_message);
mediaPlayer.setAudioStreamType(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC);
mediaPlayer.start();

And then I set the mode for the audio manager to :

context = getActivity().getBaseContext();

am = (AudioManager) context.getSystemService(Context.AUDIO_SERVICE);        
am.setMode(AudioManager.MODE_IN_CALL);
am.setSpeakerphoneOn(false);

And then it worked. So make sure that the media player and audio manager are in the same mode.
