Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Like in Whatsapp, which users are used to, if a user is in an active call and has connected a Bluetooth headset, we want to bring up a menu for device selection and of course we want it to work in sync with the native call screen.

We made a very custom development for this, but it does not work stably because when Stream starts calls, functions such as starting with the phone or microphone cause negative experiences in the application UI.

Does Stream have a plan for this, or how can we manage this in the most logical way?

Describe the solution you'd like
We should be able to manage the audio sources on the phone in a way that provides user experience. Stream should be able to provide us with an active device list or we should be able to select a device with a menu.

@ertucaglar yes, we are working on this.. There will be an audio output selection method from the SDK that works on both platforms, its still WIP. We will keep you informed here when its released. Our worst case estimate is that it will land during Q3 2025.
