Research direction

The payload names no files, so start by searching the Kotlin sources for where the screenshot sound is played and which audio stream it uses (for example AudioManager or MediaActionSound). Read the expected behavior: the sound should follow media volume or get an in-app setting, and the reporter does not say which. Done when the screenshot sound no longer depends on the ring stream, with the choice of media volume or an in-app setting stated in the PR.

Steps to reproduce the bug

Adjust ring volume
Screenshot sound determined by ring volume

Expected behavior

Screenshot volume can be adjusted with media volume or in-app

Actual behavior

Volume dependent on ring volume, causing pain for anyone with ring volume on high.

Screenshots/Screen recordings

No response

Additional information

It would be better to have it dependent on media volume, or have an in-app setting for it. I don't want to hear a screenshot sound at all, so because my ring volume is turned up to the max, my ears are shattered.
