I'm developing an app that listens to voice commands and the way to start/stop listening to voice commands is via remote control (Airpods or wired headset). I tried various AVAudioSession options with AVAudioSessionCategoryRecord and AVAudioSessionCategoryPlayAndRecord and got the following result:
Whenever the default input is a bluetooth (Airpod) mic (AVAudioSessionCategoryOptionAllowBluetooth), the app doesn't receive remote control events. Whenever the default input is the built-in mic or a wired headset, the app does receive remote control events.
Does anyone know if it's possible to have both Bluetooth mic enabled and receive remote control events?
I tested on iOS 11.0.1 and 11.0.3.
