 });

Answer 1

The sounds file where you placed is correct.

But when you build the Android app, it's location is different.

android_asset/www/assets/sounds/name.mp3

That is the location you need to specify

Of course this is used when you are using the media plugin, after the notification is received.

EDIT This is no longer a viable solution. Refer docs for ionic, since there are ground breaking changes both in android and iOS

Answer 2

I have figured it out using the capacitor local notifications on any version of Android. To get the sound working you must create a channel. The link to all information about this is https://github.com/ionic-team/capacitor/issues/1146 When you get there checkout the comment made under @moderntechllc
