Bug#1117509: vlc stops playing when the audio output is switched automatically (regression)
Package: vlc
Version: 3.0.22~rc1-1
Severity: normal
I had external Bluetooth speakers (always connected) and a Bluetooth
headset (either on or off). When I play an audio stream, the audio
goes to the headset by default, otherwise to the speakers (when the
headset is off). The switch is automatic.
There are no issues with Firefox (e.g. YouTube). And with VLC, this
was fine in the past. But today, I've noticed that VLC now generally
stops playing when the switch occurs; I have to click on the Play
button again.
vlc 3.0.21-11 is also affected.
