Can't play m4a on Android

[rafante]

I have this app that has a chat screen and I'm adding audios like WhatsApp and IOS generates m4a audio and android generates mp4 audios. IOS can play both, but android will only play mp4 it doesn't play m4a audios. The log generated is down below (that log is generated when I call play(). An observation: The same play() method works like a charm in IOS for both m4a and mp4 (generated in the android version).

Thanks in advance.

Is this m4a a local file? Have you tried playing it on other players, like VLC for example?
