如何在Windows Phone 8中播放SMS警报声音

Question

I'd like my app to play an alert sound and vibrate the phone when a certain page is loaded. Specifically, I want to play the SMS alert sound effect that the user has picked from the settings. I already have the vibration done, but I'm not sure how to get the SMS alert sound to play.

Does anyone know how I would go about doing this?

Answer 1

Unfortunately you don't have access to the phone's alerts and sounds.

One way to do this, is import a media in your project, with it's build action set to content and use the MediaElement class to play a sound, by calling its .Play() method in code-behind.
