WebRTC audio, "could not start audio source"

My app uses WebRTC audio fine in the browser, but when I open the app on my Android phone, I get the console error “DOMException: Could not start audio source”.

Here’s how I’m trying to read audio: const stream = await navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia({audio: true, video: false});

I have given my app the Android microphone permission (<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO" />).

Looks like RECORD_AUDIO permission is not enough, you also need <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS"/>

But this will only work on Android 5, on Android 6+ you’ll need to manually request the permissions and the user will have to grant them.
