A typical usage is as follows:

AVAudioSession.setCategoryWithOptions(
    AVAudioSession.Categories.PLAY_AND_RECORD,
	AVAudioSession.CategoryOptions.MIX_WITH_OTHERS,
	function() {
		// Do something on success.
	}, 
    function() {
		// Handle the error.
	}
);
AVAudioSession.getCategory(
	function(category) {
    	// Do something with category value.
    }
);
