I have created a C# desktop application using WPF for sending a toast notification. I am using my own custom audio to play when the toast notification gets displayed. I found some problems where my custom sound is not getting played when the notification window is popped out.

I have used the following code to add custom audio to my notification.

        bool supportsCustomAudio = true;

        if (AnalyticsInfo.VersionInfo.DeviceFamily.Equals("Windows.Desktop")
            && !ApiInformation.IsApiContractPresent("Windows.Foundation.UniversalApiContract", 2))
        {
            supportsCustomAudio = false;
        }
        if (supportsCustomAudio)
        {
            notificationBuilder.AddAudio(new Uri("ms-appx:///Assets/Audio/customaudio.mp3"));
        }

Am I missing something? Could someone please help me with the issue?

  • ms-appx:/// is known not to work in WPF and according to Custom audio on toasts, only ms-appx:/// and ms-resource are supported. So I am skeptical that you could use it in WPF. Commented Jun 28, 2022 at 12:30
  • I have using ms-appx:/// only in my WPF application. Can you please suggest why it is not working? Commented Jun 28, 2022 at 13:23
  • Do you mean you successfully use ms-appx:/// in other part of your WPF app? Commented Jun 28, 2022 at 13:26
  • This is the only part of code where i am using ms-appx:/// to refer my custom audio present in the project directory for the toast notification.. Commented Jun 28, 2022 at 13:29
  • As far as I know, ms-appx:/// does not work in WPF. Commented Jun 28, 2022 at 13:31
