Looks like there is bug in Android code for BLOCKING OFFLOAD mode causing a
crash when offload output is closed.
void AudioFlinger::OffloadThread::threadLoop_exit()
{
if (mFlushPending || mHwPaused) {
// If a flush is pending or track was paused, just discard buffered
data
flushHw_l();
} else {
mMixerStatus = MIXER_DRAIN_ALL;
threadLoop_drain();
}
mCallbackThread->exit(); *// For BLOCKING mode mCallbackThread is NULL*
PlaybackThread::threadLoop_exit();
}
