Speak Readings Focus

[sirlandos]

When I go for a run, I enable "Speak Readings". I'm also playing music. The readings are difficult to hear over the music. Is there a setting that will reduce the music volume when readings are spoken?

I've noticed that Strava (another app tracking distance) will reduce the music volume when speaking run distance/times. I'm new to the code and have only reviewed a small portion, but I didn't see an AudioFocusRequest in SpeechUtil.java. Is this (or something like it) implemented? Here is a reference: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3043595/fade-in-and-out-music-while-speaking-a-text

Oddly I never had this issue with my old Samsung S7 phone. I recently "upgraded" to an S20 and now this feature and music conflict.

If I'm not mistaken, we have recently started using audio focus for some alerts.

Would you please open an issue as a feature request for this?
I will then tag individuals who may be interested and may be able to help.
