I am working on a VoIP based PTT app. Uses 'voip' apns notification type to get to know about new incoming PTT call.
When my app receives a PTT call, the app plays audio. But the call audio is not heard. While checking the phone volume, the API [[AVAudioSession sharedInstance] outputVolume] returns 0. But clearly the phone volume is not zero. On checking the phone volume by pressing side volume button, the volume is above 50%.
This behavior is observed in both app foreground and background scenario.
Why does the API return zero volume level ? Is there any other reason why the app volume is not heard ?

I am working on a VoIP based PTT app. Uses 'voip' apns notification type to get to know about new incoming PTT call.
When the app is in foreground, the app gets to know about incoming VoIP PTT call through incoming push notification. After receiving notification, the app receives audio from the server. This works properly, as expected.
The app faces issues in receiving apns notifications only when the app is in background.
Issue: My app is in background and iPhone locked, the server sends apns notification to the target iPhone about a new incoming VoIP call. Server received 200 success response code from APNS. But the app in background did not receive the notification. Second time, the server sends notification about second VoIP call. App did not receive notification. Third time, server sends notification about 3rd incoming call. This list goes on. Everytime server sends a notification to the target phone, success response is received from APNS.
Now, bring the app to foreground, the app receives all the pending notifications at once. This scenario happens only in a few phones. Those customers are missing PTT calls.
Can you please provide us suggestions to solve this issue ?
My app uses unrestricted-voip entitlement
App getting terminated as the app enters background state. No crash logs are generated.
I have collected this log from Console(Mac app)by connecting iPhone and sending my app to background.
There is no meaningful reason or code I can get from the logs. Can you please help me with what does 'explanation:BG Kill Demo ' means ?
My app is a VoIP app. App depends on voip apns notifications to receive information about new Voip calls from server.
I am posting the logs collected from console app here.
