"Error activating audio session during initial setup" - Makes audio to stop working.

Pressing home button while splash screen is visible causes the following output:

In this case the game audio stops working (I'm using AVAudioPlayer for music and OpenAL for FX). And of course, Everyplay doesn't work.

SDK 1.8

[butaca]

I found a workaround by re initialising (calling setActive in AVAudioSession and alcProcessContext(ALCcontext*)) the audio in the AVAudioSessionMediaServicesWereResetNotification in iOS >= 6.0.

Didn't found a solution in iOS < 6.0 yet.

as of 1.8.1 SDK, the audio internals have been rewritten and this is most likely fixed. closing the issue but let us know if the problem persists

[butaca]

The problem persists in 1.8.1 SDK. In fact, it is worse because each time a sound is played, the game hangs for about 1 second making it unplayable. This delay may be related to "OpenAL: Improved source/buffer instance refcounting and thread-safety" (1.8.1 changelog)

[aet]

i was worried about a change related to that might cause that but never saw it in practise, the hang doesn't happen if not pressing home screen while on splash screen?

planning another release soonish as few other things get finished

[butaca]

It only happens when pressing the home button while the splash screen is being displayed. Note that this happens sometimes (with a high ratio).

Thanks for checking out this.
