How to play two sounds at the same time?

I've been trying a few things with sounds in flutter lately . Using audioPlayer plugin.

But I'm facing a wall. I have both a background music, and small sounds effects. The problem is that I can't play both at once. If I play the background music, then the sound effect won't play. And the opposite works too.

Any idea about how to solve that issue ?

Use media players. Use this code to set up the background music:

MediaPlayer backgroundMediaPlayer = MediaPlayer.create(getApplicationContext(), Uri.parse(PATH_TO_BACKGROUND_MUSIC));
mediaPlayer.setOnPreparedListener(new MediaPlayer.OnPreparedListener() {
    @Override
    public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mediaPlayer) {
        mediaPlayer.start();
    }
});

Then replace PATH_TO_BACKGROUND_MUSIC with the background music path.

Then when you want your sound effect to happen, use this code:

MediaPlayer soundEffectMediaPlayer = MediaPlayer.create(getApplicationContext(), Uri.parse(PATH_TO_SOUND_EFFECT));
    mediaPlayer.setOnPreparedListener(new MediaPlayer.OnPreparedListener() {
        @Override
        public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mediaPlayer) {
            mediaPlayer.start();
        }
    });

Then replace PATH_TO_SOUND_EFFECT with the background music path.

You can learn for about media players here.

Hope this helps!
