Current bug behaviour

If a source was paused, after an incoming call the source will resume playing on its own.

Expected behaviour

The audio should stay paused and not start playing without any user interaction.

Steps to reproduce

1. Run the example
2. From Src tab choose nasa_on_a_mission.mp3 and start playing
3. Go to Ctrl tab and puase the audio
4. Make a phone call to the device that runs the example app
5. Decline the call
6. The audio of nasa_on_a_mission.mp3 will resume playing, which should not happen.

This was happening to hundreds of our users: say they used the app hald an hour ago, and in the app they paused the playback... then whenever they make a phone call, and phonecall would end... our app would suddenly start playing audio!! When I looked around, it seems to be connected with Manage audio focus (seems to be happening only on Android, and only when audio is paused), where android system is handing back the 'focus' (who should play next) to the most recent audio app that was playing. This is used for example to re-start your audiobook, after a phonecall. I am investigating further, but did not find a solution yet in audioplayers library. For now I had to listen for the app going into background, and if the audio is paused I completely stop() is. This loses audio progress (eg. that it was 1m:23s into the file), but is an OK price to pay.

This also happens when Android plays some other audio from other apps, For now listening to app going in background works !

late AppLifecycleListener appLifecycleListener;

  @override
  void initState() {
    super.initState();
    isLoaded.value = true;
    player = widget.player;

    appLifecycleListener = AppLifecycleListener(   
      onPause: () {
        player.stop();
       player.release();
      },
    );
}
