[Question]: Is background notification handling is supported?

[anta40]

How can we help?

Consider this part of App.tsx (I'm on RN 0.71 and react-native-onesignal 5.2.8):

const handleForegroundNotification = (event: any) => {
  console.log("Foreground Notification Detail:", JSON.stringify(event));

  // play MP3 using https://github.com/zmxv/react-native-sound
  const cash_register_sound = new Sound(
    "cash.mp3",
    Sound.MAIN_BUNDLE,
    (error) => {
      if (error) {
        console.log("Failed to load the sound", error);
        return;
      }

      cash_register_sound.play((success) => {
        if (success) {
          // Do another thing, like play speech with react-native-tts
        } else {
          console.log("Playback failed due to audio decoding errors");
        }
      });
    },
  );

  cash_register_sound.setVolume(0.75);
  cash_register_sound.setPan(1);
  cash_register_sound.stop();
  cash_register_sound.release();

  event.notification.display();
};

OneSignal.Notifications.addEventListener(
  "foregroundWillDisplay",
  handleForegroundNotification,
);

Assuming app is in foreground, then after OneSignal notification is received, a "ka-ching "sound followed by "Payment accepted: XX USD" is played. So far so good on both Android & iOS devices.

Of course it won't be triggered if app is in background/minimzed. Does react-native-onesignal provide such support, or do I have to write additional code using native API?
