requestMicrophoneAuthorization callback procs at wrong time

[jhiswin]

I need to be able to react to when a user allows or denies authorization. Callback function when a request is made is not useful. Cannot find a way to do this without setting a background timer to continuously check permission status.

Added directly using cordova plugin add cordova.diagnostic.plugin

The callback is executing in parallel to the authorization request. Does not wait for user to "Allow" or "Deny" request.

cordova.plugins.diagnostic.requestMicrophoneAuthorization(function(status){
console.log(status);
});

status value is showing status before user presses a button

Also tried registerPermissionRequestCompleteHandler to no avail.

Found that you have to request the permission status again. The parameter given to the callback represents the status before user interaction.

I've just investigated this and found that in the latest version of the plugin (v4.0.6), the success callback in being invoked correctly by requestMicrophoneAuthorization() only once the user has reponded to the runtime permissions dialog.

To reproduce my test case, please do the following:

• Build and run the example project for Android
• Use Chrome Developer Tools to inspect the app Webview and place a breakpoint on line 84 of index.js
• Scroll down and press the "Request Microphone Authorization" button
• Observe that the breakpoint in the success callback is not invoked until you respond to the native runtime permission dialog

FYI: while looking into this, I discovered a typo in the JS layer of the microphone module for Android:
it should define Diagnostic_Microphone.requestMicrophoneAuthorization, not Diagnostic.requestMicrophoneAuthorization.
This causes it to override the definition in the core module, but does not lead to the behaviour described in your issue.
I'll fix the typo in the next release of this plugin.
