Describe the bug

When turning on smart keys + click sounds, the click sounds will occasionally play at very loud volumes, blasting the iPhone's speaker.

This usually happens after pressing a key on the native keyboard first, followed by a smart key.

It does not reproduce in video, so I believe blink must be adjusting the volume or playing the same back in a weird way.

This happens about 50% of the time, and has been an issue for some time now.

I also just noticed the same thing happens for the notification bell.

Hi! I'm not sure this is under our control as we use AudioServicesPlaySystemSound. But have you tried to configure the Alerts and Ringtones in Settings? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10855874/audioservicesplaysystemsound-volume. If you don't find a way and it is bothering you, it is possible to disable keyboard sounds inside Blink at Config > Smart Keys > Click sounds.

Yes I have disabled sounds for the safety of my hardware.

Is it safe to say you couldn't reproduce? I have across multiple devices and if you watched the video, I'd be concerned for users' hardware at this point 😅

My alert volume is set very low::

It is 💯 reproducible. I will try to use one of the regular sounds as maybe this one in particular has a special random behavior 😅

Thanks for the heads up. Moving back to issues.

I can confirm the fix and it will be out on v17.2.0. #1937
