Android: Go Live stream audio mute state does not match actual audio playback

(#2259) Bug Fixed mobile video

Observed behaviour

The stream mute UI and the actual stream audio are out of sync. The stream can be silent while shown as unmuted. Toggling Mute and Unmute can make the audio start playing. When the audio is playing, selecting Mute may not mute it at all. Minimizing and reopening the stream can make the audio disappear again. A screen recording demonstrating the issue is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t72fJgVByu8

Reproduction steps

  1. Join a voice channel on Android where someone is streaming with Go Live/screen share audio.
  2. Tap "Watch Stream".
  3. The stream may start with video working, but no stream audio, even though the stream is not shown as muted.
  4. Long-press the stream and select Mute, then Unmute.
  5. The stream audio starts playing.
  6. Long-press the stream again and select Mute while audio is playing.
  7. The audio continues playing even though Mute was selected.
  8. Minimize the stream and return to fullscreen.
  9. The stream audio may become silent again until Mute/Unmute is toggled.

Details

Expected behaviour The stream mute state should always match the actual Go Live/screen share audio state. Selecting Mute should stop the stream audio. Selecting Unmute should restore the stream audio. Opening, minimizing or returning to fullscreen should not unexpectedly change the audio state.
