MediaStreamAudioSourceNode memory leak, OR no way to destroy node

[vneznaikin]

I am using MediaStreamAudioSourceNode to connect via WebRTC. Everything works fine until the moment when I need to end the call and open a new connection. What am I doing:

• when the call starts

  this.peerConnection.ontrack = (e) => {
  this.stream = e.streams[0];
  ...
  this.source = this.context.createMediaStreamSource(this.stream);
  ...

• when the call end

  this.peerConnection.close()
  ...
  this.stream.getAudioTracks().forEach(track => {
      track.stop()
      this.stream.removeTrack(track);
  });
  ...
  this.source.disconnect(this.destination)
  this.source.disconnect()
  this.source = null

  After remove all tracks MediaStream have status "inactive" But node MediaStreamAudioSource still EXIST. I can see it through the Chrome app "Audion"

I tried not to recreate MediaStreamAudioSourceNode , just delete tracks and add new ones to MediaStream, but it's not working

I found a similar issue on stackoverflow, without any solution

As a result I didn't find any way to destroy the MediaStreamAudioSourceNode . Maybe I'm missing something?
