[0007] If the target information meets the startup conditions, the preset connection mode will be restarted.

[0008] In the preset connection mode, the application's audio is played by the audio device.

[0009] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the application sends the invocation instruction upon receiving a first broadcast; the step of determining target information related to the audio device and the application in the event that the preset connection mode fails to start includes:

[0010] If the preset connection mode fails to start and a second broadcast is received, the target information is determined.

[0011] The first broadcast and the second broadcast are transmitted sequentially when the audio device is connected.

[0012] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the target information includes a startup identifier associated with the audio device; the audio playback method further includes:

[0013] Upon receiving the first broadcast, determine the connection status of the audio device mentioned in the first broadcast;

[0015] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the target information further includes application information related to the application; the audio playback method further includes:

[0016] When the launch identifier is the first identifier, the application's communication mechanism information and identification information are stored in the application information.

[0017] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the startup conditions include the startup identifier being the first identifier and the application information containing the communication mechanism information and the identifier information.

[0018] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the audio playback method further includes:

[0019] In response to the application's deletion command, the communication mechanism information and the identification information in the application information are deleted.

[0020] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the audio playback method further includes:

[0021] Upon receiving the second broadcast, the audio device identifier will be changed from the second identifier to the third identifier;

[0022] The second identifier is used to indicate that the audio device does not exist, and the third identifier is used to indicate that the audio device exists.

[0023] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the preset connection mode cannot be successfully started when the audio device identifier is the second identifier; the preset connection mode can be successfully started when the audio device identifier is the third identifier.

[0024] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the audio device is a Bluetooth audio device, and the preset connection mode is a synchronous connection-oriented mode.

[0025] According to a second aspect of the present disclosure, an audio playback device is provided, the audio playback device comprising:

[0026] A first startup module is configured to initiate a preset connection mode in response to a call command from an application when an audio device is connected.

[0027] A determination module is configured to determine target information related to the audio device and the application in the event that the preset connection mode fails to start;

[0028] The second startup module is configured to restart the preset connection mode when the target information meets the startup conditions.

[0035] The technical solutions provided by the embodiments of this disclosure may include the following beneficial effects:

[0036] When an audio device is connected, the application needs to play audio through it. In response to the application's invocation, a preset connection mode is initiated to allow the audio device to play audio. If the preset connection mode fails to initiate, the audio device cannot play audio, and target information related to the audio device and the application is determined. If the target information meets the initiation conditions, audio playback through the audio device is still required, and the preset connection mode is initiated again. By restarting the preset connection mode to allow audio device playback when it fails to initiate, the problem of audio being played from the electronic device's speakers is solved, thus preventing audio from being played from the electronic device's speakers.

Detailed Implementation

[0047] Exemplary embodiments will now be described in detail, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description relates to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings denote the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with this disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of this disclosure as detailed in the appended claims. It should also be understood that the term “and / or” as used in this disclosure refers to and includes any or all possible combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0048] With the development of wireless communication technology, audio devices can now connect wirelessly to electronic devices to play audio, greatly enhancing portability. For example, users can play music from their electronic devices using Bluetooth headsets or other similar devices, or make calls using them. During audio playback, users may connect an audio device to switch the electronic device's speaker to play audio from an application. Figure 1As shown, after the communication module of the audio device and the electronic device establishes a communication connection, the communication module successively sends a first broadcast reflecting a change in the connection state related to the audio device and a second broadcast reflecting a change in the activated device. Upon receiving the first broadcast, the application calls the interface in the audio module of the electronic device used to initiate Synchronous Connection Oriented (SCO) mode, causing the audio module to notify the communication module to initiate SCO mode to establish a link. Since the audio module does not receive the second broadcast, the audio device identifier, which indicates the existence of the audio device, remains a non-existent identifier. Because the audio device identifier is non-existent, the audio module does not notify the communication module to initiate SCO mode, causing the SCO mode initiation to fail, resulting in the application's audio continuing to play from the speaker. After the communication module sends the second broadcast, the audio module receives it and adjusts the audio device identifier to an existing identifier. Since the application does not call the audio module's interface again, the audio module does not notify the communication module to initiate SCO mode, causing the application's audio to continue playing from the speaker.

[0049] In related technologies, an audio playback method is provided where, in the event of a failure to initiate synchronous connection-oriented mode, the application calls the audio module's interface again after a certain period of time to re-initiate synchronous connection-oriented mode. During this period, the communication module sends a second broadcast, and the audio module, upon receiving the second broadcast, adjusts the audio device identifier to an existing identifier. Responding to the application's subsequent call instruction, and with the audio device identifier already present, the audio module notifies the communication module to initiate synchronous connection-oriented mode to establish a link. This method can reduce the duration of audio playback to some extent, preventing continuous audio playback from the speaker. However, for applications that do not support re-initiating synchronous connection-oriented mode, audio still plays from the speaker, resulting in the problem of audio playback issues in electronic devices.

[0050] To address the aforementioned technical issues, this disclosure provides an audio playback method that, when a preset connection mode fails to start but the target information meets the startup conditions, re-starts the preset connection mode to play audio from an application via an audio device. Since the preset connection mode can be automatically restarted without requiring application calls, audio playback from a speaker is avoided, thus solving the problem of external audio playback from electronic devices.

[0051] This disclosure provides an audio playback method, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the method includes:

[0052] S100: When an audio device is connected, the default connection mode is activated in response to the application's call command.

[0053] S200: In the event that the preset connection mode fails to start, determine the target information related to the audio device and the application.

[0054] S300. If the target information meets the startup conditions, restart the preset connection mode.

[0055] In the default connection mode, the application's audio is played by an audio device.

[0056] In this embodiment, when an audio device is connected, the application needs to play audio through the audio device. In response to the application's invocation command, a preset connection mode is initiated to allow the audio device to play audio within this mode. If the preset connection mode fails to initiate, the audio device cannot play audio, and target information related to the audio device and the application is determined. If the target information meets the initiation conditions, audio playback through the audio device is still required, and the preset connection mode is initiated again. By restarting the preset connection mode to allow the audio device to play audio when it fails to initiate, audio is prevented from being played from the electronic device's speaker, thus solving the problem of external audio playback from the electronic device.

[0057] For example, the application's invocation instruction can be an instruction for the application to invoke the interface of the audio module. The step S100 of activating the preset connection mode can be activating the preset connection mode on the communication module. The communication module can be a Bluetooth module, a Starlight module, etc.

[0058] For example, before the preset connection mode is successfully launched, the application's audio is played by the electronic device's speaker.

[0059] In one embodiment, the audio device is a Bluetooth audio device, and the preset connection mode is synchronous connection-oriented mode.

[0060] In this embodiment, since the Bluetooth audio device can be paired with a variety of electronic devices, the problem of external audio playback by various electronic devices can be solved by restarting the synchronous connection-oriented mode, thus improving the versatility of the audio playback method.

[0061] It is understandable that the audio device can be a Bluetooth audio device, or a StarFlash audio device, etc. The preset connection mode can be either synchronous connection-oriented mode or other connection modes used to establish a link.

[0062] In one embodiment, the application sends a call instruction upon receiving a first broadcast. In step S200, if the preset connection mode fails to start, the target information related to the audio device and the application can be determined in the following manner:

[0063] If the preset connection mode fails to start and a second broadcast is received, determine the target information.

[0064] The first and second broadcasts are delivered sequentially when the audio equipment is connected.

[0065] In this embodiment, since the first and second broadcasts are sent sequentially when the audio devices are connected, the application sends a call command upon receiving the first broadcast, but the audio module fails to receive the second broadcast, causing the preset connection mode to fail to start. To avoid frequent startups of the preset connection mode, when the preset connection mode fails to start but the second broadcast is received, target information is determined to restart the preset connection mode. By using the receipt of the second broadcast as the timing for restarting the preset connection mode, frequent and invalid startups of the preset connection mode are avoided, thereby improving the reliability of audio playback.

[0066] For example, the reason for the failure to start the preset connection mode in step S200 may be that the audio module does not notify the communication module to start the preset connection mode because it has not received the second broadcast, or the application cancels the playback of audio with the audio device, etc.

[0067] For example, upon receiving the first broadcast, the application calls the interface associated with the audio device to obtain information about the connected audio device. Having obtained the audio device information, it sends a call command to initiate a preset connection mode.

[0068] In one embodiment, the target information includes a startup identifier associated with the audio device. For example... Figure 3 As shown, the audio playback method also includes:

[0069] S400: Upon receiving a first broadcast, determine the connection status of the audio device in the first broadcast.

[0070] S410. When the connection status is "connected", set the startup flag to the first flag.

[0071] In this embodiment, since the first broadcast reflects whether the connection status of the audio device has changed, the connection status of the audio device in the first broadcast is determined upon receiving the first broadcast. If the connection status is "connected," there is a connected audio device and audio can be played through the audio device; therefore, the activation flag is set to the first flag. By adjusting the activation flag based on the first broadcast, it is possible to determine whether to restart the preset connection mode if the preset connection mode fails to start, thereby improving the reliability of audio playback.

[0072] For example, the audio module registers a broadcast upon startup and is able to listen to broadcasts to receive a first broadcast and a second broadcast.

[0073] For example, upon receiving a first broadcast, the information in the first broadcast reflecting whether the audio device is connected can be stored as a connected state.

[0074] For example, setting the startup identifier to the first identifier in step S410 can be performed if the startup fails in the preset connection mode, so as to avoid generating additional instructions.

[0075] In one embodiment, the target information further includes application information related to the application. The audio playback method also includes:

[0076] When the startup identifier is the first identifier, the application's communication mechanism information and identification information are stored in the application information.

[0077] In this embodiment, when the startup identifier is the first identifier, the audio device is in a connected state, and the application's audio can be played using the audio device. The application's communication mechanism information and identifier information are stored in the application information to store information about the application that needs to play audio. By storing the application information, it is possible to determine whether to restart the preset connection mode if the preset connection mode fails to start, thereby improving the reliability of audio playback.

[0078] For example, the identification information may include user identifier (UID), process identifier (PID), etc.

[0079] For example, storing the application's communication mechanism information and identification information in the application information in the above steps can be performed if the preset connection mode fails to start, so as to avoid generating additional instructions.

[0080] In one embodiment, the startup conditions include the startup identifier being a first identifier and the presence of communication mechanism information and identifier information in the application information.

[0081] In this embodiment, since the audio device is already connected and can be used to play audio when the startup identifier is the first identifier, the failure to start the preset connection mode is not due to the audio device not being connected, and the preset connection mode can be restarted. Because the application information contains communication mechanism information and identifier information, the application needs to play audio through the audio device, thus the preset connection mode can be restarted. By using the startup identifier as the first identifier and the presence of communication mechanism information and identifier information in the application information as startup conditions, the reliability of audio playback is improved by avoiding restarting the preset connection mode when audio playback is not required.

[0082] For example, if the startup conditions include the presence of communication mechanism information and identification information in the application information, the communication mechanism information and identification information can be verified to determine their validity. If the communication mechanism information and identification information are valid, the preset connection mode is restarted. If the communication mechanism information and identification information are invalid, the preset connection mode is not restarted.

[0083] In one embodiment, the audio playback method further includes:

[0084] In response to the application's deletion command, delete the communication mechanism information and identification information from the application information.

[0085] In this embodiment, since the user may or may not need to play the application's audio using an audio device, after the user performs an action that does not require playing the application's audio using an audio device, the application sends a deletion command to remove communication mechanism information and identification information from the application information to prevent the preset connection mode from being restarted. By deleting information from the application to prevent the audio device from playing audio, audio can be played in the way the user needs, thereby improving the reliability of audio playback.

[0086] In one embodiment, the audio playback method further includes:

[0087] Upon receiving a second broadcast, the audio device identifier is changed from the second identifier to the third identifier.

[0088] The second identifier is used to indicate that no audio device exists, and the third identifier is used to indicate that an audio device exists.

[0089] In this embodiment, if the second broadcast is not received, it cannot be determined whether the audio device is active, and the audio device identifier remains the second identifier to indicate that the audio device does not exist. If the second broadcast is received, it is determined that the audio device is active, and the audio device identifier is adjusted to the third identifier to indicate that the audio device exists. By adjusting the audio device identifier to indicate the existence of the audio device after receiving the second broadcast, the inability of the application to play audio is avoided, thereby improving the reliability of audio playback.

[0090] In one embodiment, the preset connection mode fails to start when the audio device identifier is the second identifier. The preset connection mode starts successfully when the audio device identifier is the third identifier.

[0091] In this embodiment, if the audio device identifier is the second identifier, no audio device exists and the preset connection mode is not initiated in the communication module, thus the preset connection mode cannot be successfully initiated. If the audio device identifier is the third identifier, an audio device exists and the preset connection mode is initiated in the communication module, thus the preset connection mode can be successfully initiated. By determining whether to initiate the preset connection mode in the communication module based on the audio device identifier, invalid links are avoided, preventing audio playback and thereby improving the reliability of audio playback.

[0092] For example, after determining the connection status of the audio device in the first broadcast in step S400, the audio playback method further includes:

[0093] If the connection status is not connected, set the startup flag to the fourth flag.

[0094] In one embodiment, in step S200, if the preset connection mode fails to start, determining the target information related to the audio device and the application can also be done in the following way:

[0095] If the preset connection mode fails to start and a preset time has elapsed, determine the target information.

[0096] In this embodiment, if the preset connection mode fails to start, the application's audio cannot be played via the audio device, and the preset connection mode needs to be restarted. After a preset time has elapsed, the cause of the preset connection mode failure may be eliminated, and the target information can be determined to restart the preset connection mode. By using a preset time as the timing for restarting the preset connection mode, timely restarting of the preset connection mode can be performed, thereby improving the reliability of audio playback.

[0097] For example, the preset time can range from 1s to 5s. The preset time can be 2s, 3s, 4s, etc.

[0098] For example, after determining the target information related to the audio device and application in step S200, the audio playback method further includes:

[0099] If the target information does not meet the startup conditions, the preset connection mode will not be started.

[0100] For example, if the preset connection mode fails to start, and the target information continues to meet the startup conditions, the preset connection mode will be restarted until the preset connection mode starts successfully.

[0101] This disclosure provides an audio playback method, such as... Figure 4 As shown, the method includes:

[0102] S500: Upon receiving the first broadcast, determine the connection status of the Bluetooth headset in the first broadcast.

[0103] S510, in response to the application's call command, initiates synchronous connection-oriented mode.

[0104] S520: If the synchronous connection-oriented mode fails to start, and the Bluetooth headset is already connected, then the startup flag is set to the first flag.

[0105] S530. When the startup identifier is the first identifier, the application's communication mechanism information and identifier information are stored in the application information.

[0106] S540. Upon receiving a second broadcast, the audio device identifier is changed from the second identifier to the third identifier.

[0107] S550, determine the startup identifier and application information.

[0108] S560. If the startup identifier is the first identifier and there is valid communication mechanism information and identifier information in the application information, restart the synchronous connection-oriented mode.

[0109] S570. If there is no valid communication mechanism information and identification information in the startup identifier (fourth identifier) ​​and / or application information, the synchronous connection-oriented mode will not be started.

[0110] In this embodiment, when the Bluetooth headset is connected, the Bluetooth module sends a first broadcast and a second broadcast sequentially. Upon receiving the first broadcast, the connection status of the Bluetooth headset in the first broadcast is determined to ascertain whether the Bluetooth headset is connected. In response to the call command sent by the application under the first broadcast, a synchronous connection-oriented mode is initiated to play the application's audio through the Bluetooth headset. If the synchronous connection-oriented mode fails to start, and the Bluetooth headset is already connected, the start flag is set to the first flag. With the start flag set to the first flag, the application's communication mechanism information and identification information are stored in the application information to reflect that the application requires the Bluetooth headset to play audio. Upon receiving the second broadcast, the audio device flag is changed from the second flag to the third flag to confirm the presence of the Bluetooth headset, enabling the synchronous connection-oriented mode to start successfully. The start flag and application information are determined, and if the start flag is the first flag and valid communication mechanism information and identification information exist in the application information, the synchronous connection-oriented mode is restarted. If the start flag is the fourth flag and / or valid communication mechanism information and identification information do not exist in the application information, audio playback is not required from the Bluetooth headset, and the synchronous connection-oriented mode is not restarted. By restarting the synchronous connection-oriented mode in case of a failure to start the synchronous connection-oriented mode, the Bluetooth headset can play audio, thus preventing the audio from being played from the electronic device's speaker, thereby solving the problem of external audio playback from electronic devices.
