DeviceInfo.isHeadphonesConnected() always return false on Redmi 6

Bug

I’m wondering if this is related to some kind of version incompatibility or just whether I can expect it to work - does it look like isHeadphonesConnected() should return true under these circumstances? Thanks very much!

Yeah i actaully have already played aroudn with a few of hte suggestions that I have found on stackoverflow and continue to get false with different objective-c API’s

But i’m going to keep playing around and I’ll create a PR if I end up figuring it out
