Another handy package is AudioPlayers that can also cache local audio files.

Here is a very basic example, that has buttons to play, pause and stop a reference to local audio that is passed into a stateful widget, to get you started (based mainly off this Medium article) Medium Article

Reminder to save your audio in your local files like below

enter image description here

and add a reference in your yaml file and get dependencies

  assets:
    - assets/audio/

import 'package:audioplayers/audioplayers.dart';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

class AudioManagerExample extends StatefulWidget {
  const AudioManagerExample({required this.audioName, Key? key}) : super(key: key);

  final String audioName;

  @override
  _AudioManagerExampleState createState() => _AudioManagerExampleState();
}

class _AudioManagerExampleState extends State<AudioManagerExample> {
  AudioPlayer audioPlayer = AudioPlayer();
  late AudioCache audioCache;

  @override
  void initState() {
    audioCache = AudioCache(fixedPlayer: audioPlayer);
    audioCache.load('audio/${widget.audioName}.mp3');
    super.initState();
  }

  @override
  void dispose() {
    audioCache.clearAll();
    audioPlayer.dispose();
    super.dispose();
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Column(
      mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
      children: [
        ElevatedButton(
          onPressed: () {
            setState(() {
              audioCache.play('audio/${widget.audioName}.mp3');
            });
          },
          child: Text('Play ${widget.audioName}'),
        ),
        ElevatedButton(
          onPressed: () {
            setState(() {
              audioPlayer.pause();
            });
          },
          child: Text('Pause ${widget.audioName}'),
        ),
        ElevatedButton(
          onPressed: () {
            setState(() {
              audioPlayer.stop();
            });
          },
          child: Text('Stop ${widget.audioName}'),
        ),
      ],
    );
  }
}

You can use https://pub.dev/packages/just_audio package to play audio.

import 'package:just_audio/just_audio.dart';

final _player = AudioPlayer();
    

playAudio() async {
    try {
      await _player.setFilePath(widget.audioPath);
    } catch (e) {
      log("Error loading audio source: $e");
    }
    _player.play();
  }
