Issue

Remote controls don’t work on iOS. I registerd the service: TrackPlayer.registerPlaybackService(() => require('./service.js'));

I setup the TrackPlayer: TrackPlayer.setupPlayer();

In componentDidMount I do:

    TrackPlayer.updateOptions({
      stopWithApp: false,
      capabilities: [
        TrackPlayer.CAPABILITY_PLAY,
        TrackPlayer.CAPABILITY_PAUSE,
        TrackPlayer.CAPABILITY_SKIP_TO_NEXT,
        TrackPlayer.CAPABILITY_SKIP_TO_PREVIOUS,
      ],
      compactCapabilities: [
        TrackPlayer.CAPABILITY_PLAY,
        TrackPlayer.CAPABILITY_PAUSE,
        TrackPlayer.CAPABILITY_SKIP_TO_NEXT,
        TrackPlayer.CAPABILITY_SKIP_TO_PREVIOUS,
      ]
    });

And I start it with:

        await TrackPlayer.reset();
        await TrackPlayer.add({
          id: id,
          url: path,
          title: title,
          artist: artist,
          artwork: artwork,
        });
        await TrackPlayer.play();

Service looks like:

// service.js
module.exports = async function() {
  
    TrackPlayer.addEventListener('remote-play', () => {
      console.log("play")
      TrackPlayer.play()
    });

But log and play do not fire. Everything else works. In the beginning remote controls also did work sometimes but only after multiple trys.
