I have installed react-native-sound , I am using this for my windows or desktop application but it is not working

"react-native": "0.73.3",
"react-native-cli": "^2.0.1",
"react-native-sound": "^0.11.2",
"react-native-windows": "0.73.4",

these are the dependencies I am using but getting error while running npx react-native run-windows 


Please help me there, If you want more information please let me know.

I have the same issue that The type or namespace name 'ReactNative' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

I've tried version 0.11.1 and still same problem.

you need to create a patch just like this but with correct namespace for react-native-sound like it is being done in react-native-video

it is because of AGP 8 upgrade in RN 0.73

I don't understand what you meant by creating new patch, can you explain it more ?
