You would need to mute the scanner beep and then have your app generate the sound itself.

If you are using DataWedge the easiest way to mute the scanner beep is to replace the “Decode Audio Feedback” with a silent audio file, https://techdocs.zebra.com/datawedge/11-1/guide/input/barcode/#scanparams.

If you are using EMDK, you should be able to set the DecodeAudioFeedbackMode to None, https://techdocs.zebra.com/emdk-for-android/11-0/api/reference/com/symbol/emdk/barcode/ScannerConfig.DecodeAudioFeedbackMode.html.
