Retrieve UNNotificationRequest Sound Name from Request

I set up a notification with a custom sound like so:

var soundNames = ["Default", "Alert1", "Alert2", "Alert3", "Alert4", "Alert5", "Alert6", "Alert7", "Alert8", "Alert9", "Alert10"]

func addNotification(title: String, timeInt: TimeInterval, image: Data?, soundName: String?) {

let content = UNMutableNotificationContent()
content.title = title

    content.sound = UNNotificationSound(named: UNNotificationSoundName(rawValue: "\(soundName!).caf"))

    var trigger: UNTimeIntervalNotificationTrigger

    trigger = UNTimeIntervalNotificationTrigger(timeInterval: timeInt, repeats: true)

// choose a random identifier
let request = UNNotificationRequest(identifier: UUID().uuidString, content: content, trigger: trigger)

// add our notification request
UNUserNotificationCenter.current().add(request)

saveConceptCard(id: request.identifier, title: title, image: image)

}

Now I want to get the name of the custom sound I used when I retrieve the specific notification request from its id

 var notification: UNNotificationRequest

I try to get the sound name like so:

 let sound = notification.content.sound!.debugDescription

But this returns:

 <UNNotificationSound: 0x2822419d0>

Is there a way to get the filename from that code?

you have to convert your text into speech by using AVFoundation framework

when you push your notification you also have to push AVSpeechSynthesizer

here is how you set it:

let utterance = AVSpeechUtterance(string: "Hello world")
utterance.voice = AVSpeechSynthesisVoice(language: "en-GB")
utterance.rate = 0.1 

let synthesizer = AVSpeechSynthesizer()

Here is the voice action:

synthesizer.speak(utterance)
