Description

Hi, I'm trying to use sdk-26 branch. I test it on a devices and emulator. Everything is fine on android from 4.2 to 7. But on android 8 notifications appears on the screen but there is no sound.

I'm trying to send custom notification.

{
  token: deviceToken,
  data: {
    custom_notification: JSON.stringify({ 
       title: "Title", 
       body: "Body",
       sound: "default",
       priority: "high", 
       ticker: "Ticker", 
       channel: "default"
    })
  }
}

"react": "16.0.0-alpha.12", "react-native": "0.47.1", "react-native-fcm": "github:evollu/react-native-fcm#sdk-26"

Research direction
The issue reports no sound on Android 8 when using react native fcm. On Android 8+, notification channels are required for sound to work. Investigate the Android module code (likely in android/app/src/main/java/.../fcm/) to see how notifications are created. Ensure that a notification channel is created with the correct sound setting and that the channel ID matches what is sent in the payload (e.g., 'default'). Test on an Android 8 emulator with a sample app to confirm the fix.
