Launch chrome with un-muted audio

Is there a simple way to launch Chrome without --mute-audio flag? Or is it possible to clear out all default flags without forking the project and doing it manually?

Seems like there’s no option right now other than reverting to old version #65 #134 #28 #38 #70 #122 #124

Until someone comes up with a viable solution, this is the only thing I could do as I wasn’t able to properly build and test it due to type errors… I feel ashamed as a developer but whatever, it gets the shit done 😃

// PLEASE COME UP WITH A BETTER SOLUTION
// DON'T USE IT IN PRODUCTION

const _fs = require('fs');
const _path = require('path');

let clResolve = require.resolve('chrome-launcher');
if(clResolve) {
    clResolve = _path.join(_path.dirname(clResolve), 'flags.js');
    if(_fs.existsSync(clResolve)) {
        let content = _fs.readFileSync(clResolve, 'utf8');
        let newContent = content.replace(/^(\s+'--mute-audio')/gm, '//$1');
        if(content !== newContent) _fs.writeFileSync(clResolve, newContent, 'utf8');
    }
}

let chrome = require('chrome-launcher');
chrome.launch({ ... }); // Chrome will be launched without --mute-audio

Chrome-launcher contributors, please merge #134, #124 or #133
