**Issue:**  
We are working on a remote collaborative application that is deployed both as an APK using the Cordova app on the client side (sender) and as a web application on the receiver’s end. In an active open vidu one-on-one call, A being the sender and B being the receiver, the audio of B(Receiver) is not audible to A(Sender). Whereas the video of both A(Sender) & B(Receiver) is visible to each other. When tested on OpenVidu by creating a custom room, both the audio and video of A & B are audible and visible.

**Solutions tried and failed:**  
All these changes were made to the client-side javascript files.

1)Tried changing the audio source from true to undefined.  
2)Tried printing the value of the publishAudio, while printing the value, it shows as **true**  
3)Tried changing the OpenVidu Browser version from **2.18.0 to 2.20.0**

**Packages used:**

1. OpenVidu: 2.20.0

**Browsers tested:** Chrome (106.0.5249.121), MS Edge (107.0.1418.26)

It would be great if anyone could address this issue and provide a hint to the solution. Thanks in advance 🙂

I don’t understand. The audio from B (the receiver) is not audible to A (Sender). Is it a bidirectional 1:1 communication? Or just A send audio and video to B?

Because if it is bidirectional, both clients are Senders and receivers.

It is a bidirectional 1:1 communication.
