We use the microphone to record the user voice on iOS.

We just integrated Wwise in our Unity project, and it looks like we can't use the microphone anymore on iOS devices:

we get the following error: 

AK Error: Voice Starvation

Starting Microphone failed. result=57 (A call to a standard soundcard driver failed, which could possibly mean a bug in the driver or resources were missing or exhausted. )

Is it a known limitation of Wwise ?

Hello Christian, this is indeed a limitation, Microphone is not yet supported in Wwise Unity Integration.

For the full list of limitations related to Wwise Unity Integration, I would suggest to check the API Changes and Limitations in our Documentation.

Good afternoon, has this issue been resolved yet? WE really want to use the microphone with Wwise and Unity 5!
Hi Fabien, please can you update if this functionality will be added in the next build? Cheers
