Research direction

Start by locating the playback controls and audio playback setup in the Android app, then read how the current loudspeaker route is selected. Add an option to route playback through the earpiece and make it accessible to users. Done when users can choose earpiece playback and audio plays through that route; the issue names no files or tests.
