This appears to be a QT Android deployment issue.
It also looks like some sample apps are hard coded to particular Qt release?
The following is what I did to fix sound for the Maroon sample app (a QtQuick/QML app) on Qt 5.6 for Android x86.
The fix for: "Maroon In Trouble".
Modified the resource: SoundEffect.qml:
Added (missing!?):
import QtMultimedia 5.6
Modified the following line, changing the library from 5.0 to 5.6:
property QtObject effect: Qt.createQmlObject("import QtMultimedia 5.6; SoundEffect{ source: '" + container.source + "'; muted: !Qt.application.active }", container);
Applying the above changes added one additional library to the Android plugin/lib directory
...android-build\libs\x86\*.so -> libqml_QtMultimedia_libdeclarative_multimedia.so
Note: libplugins_audio_libqtaudio_opensles.so was present in: ...android-build\libs\x86\ before I added the import statement, but this library may not have been actually deployed? (hence the log message "QtMultimedia" is not installed)
Note: It appears that 5 additional dependencies from Qt are reported to be added to the package.
It appears that it is not enough to have an entry in the *.pro for qtHaveModule(multimedia): QT += multimedia as the Qt sound libraries are not deployed? I think adding the import statement probably changed what was actually deployed, but someone better informed about apk's & how deployment works can probably explain this better.
Now I need to understand how to do the equivalent deployment fix for my C++ app. Does anyone know the equivalent to the above "import" statement?, to ensure that ALL the multimedia files libraries/plugins are deployed? As I think I am running into the very same issue. Where does one put the import statement in a C++ app?
Thanks in advance!
