iOS - no sound through speakers

Nope, checked all those settings, still not playing. Other apps play through both headphones and the speakers so I know it's not hardware. 


I'll rebuild the (so far simple) stack again from scratch and see if that fixes it.

> If sound plays through the headphones it should also play through the external speaker(s). Check to make sure you don't have the volume muted. If you're on an iPad, the side switch can be toggled to either mute sound or lock rotation. Check the Settings app to see which one is set. One quick way to check (iPad only) is to double click the Home button to pull up the multitasking bar, then swipe right to see volume and playback controls. If the side switch is set for lock rotation, then you'll see a mute button on the left. If it's set for Mute, then you'll see a lock rotation button instead. If you're on an iPhone/iPod Touch, honestly I'm not really sure what the problem would be if the volume is not muted. Hardware issue perhaps?
