Discussion:
AAudio AAUDIO_ERROR_DISCONNECTED not always firing?

Hello,

I am currently implementing an AAudio sink for Android in a native
application. Everything is going great, but I noticed a bug: when
unplugging wired headphones, my error callback function is not reliably
being called back for the AAUDIO_ERROR_DISCONNECTED event.

It only fires perhaps once in 7 or 8 attempts. However, when I plug the
headphones back in, the event *always *fires. I suspect that it has to do
with the way the plug physically twists in the jack before yanking out...

I tried polling the audio stream regularly using AAudioStream_getState() in
my main loop, but it reports the PLAYING state even though the headphones
are disconnected.

I need this event to fire reliably so that I can reset the audio stream and
resume playing on the new default output device (the phone's speakers).

I am testing using a Pixel phone, upgraded to Android 9.0. I tried two
different headphones and the result is the same.

Is there a known workaround for this problem? Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks in advance,

Philippe Milot

Yes. That was a regression in Pie. Internal bug number b/111711159
It affects Pixel phones running Pie in AAudio Low Latency mode. Sorry about
that.

It was fixed too late for the normal Pie release but will go into a future
update.
There is no known workaround.

BTW, we recommend coding to Oboe instead of AAudio directly. It is a thin
wrapper over AAudio that falls back to OpenSL ES on older devices. Oboe
includes workarounds for version specific bugs if possible.

I see. I guess I'll just have to wait it out. Thank you for your help!
