Remarks

App developers can use this information to determine if they should suppress playing a sound when the device takes a picture since the operating system will play a sound if it is required by the device's region.

You can specify that the system should always play a shutter sound when a photo is captured by setting the MediaCaptureInitializationSettings.AlwaysPlaySystemShutterSound property to true when initializing the MediaCapture object.
