# Sound Manager

> Manage CometChat Flutter UI Kit sounds for incoming and outgoing messages, calls, custom audio, playback, and stop controls.

## Overview

The `SoundManager` is a helper class responsible for managing and playing various types of audio in the CometChat V6 UI Kit. This includes sound events for incoming and outgoing messages and calls.

## Methods

### Play Sound

The SoundManager plays pre-defined or custom sounds based on user interactions with the chat interface.

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="Dart">
    ```dart theme={null}
    // Play default sounds:
    SoundManager().play(sound: Sound.incomingMessage);
    SoundManager().play(sound: Sound.outgoingMessage);
    ```
  </Tab>
</Tabs>

### Stop Sound

Stop any sound currently being played:

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="Dart">
    ```dart theme={null}
    SoundManager().stop();
    ```
  </Tab>
</Tabs>

## Usage

Play a custom sound:

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="Dart">
    ```dart theme={null}
    SoundManager().play(sound: Sound.outgoingMessage, customSound: "assetPath");
    ```
  </Tab>
</Tabs>
