"Playback" category

[sara-ana]

Hello. I'm doing an iOS VoIP app with push-to-talk functionality, and it works fine in foreground.
But when it goes to background, I set audiosession category to Playback, from PlayAndRecord because I need to still play audio on device, and user has no possibility to record while app is in background. But the red recording indicator is still shown in the status bar while app is in background as if my app is recording. Is there another way to turn of microphone while app is in background?
