title: sharing audio input on Android
body: <p>I am doing some preparation research for an Android phone app that would involve voice search or speech recognition while the user is simultaneously engaged in a phone call. I'm finding that when I am in the middle of a call and attempt to invoke voice search or a similar action that would take input from the microphone I get an "audio error" message. Does the phone app take exclusive control over the microphone input of the phone such that other apps cannot get access to audio input?</p>
