• Result is not what expected ? Dont expect that just by adding the plugin flutter sound lite will crash the same audio service example

• Cannot build my App ? Ok - can build but we get a warning on build :

WARNING: [Processor] Library '/.gradle/caches/modules-2/files-2.1/com.github.canardoux/flutter_sound_core/8.4.1/df1da2efb4085098ab4cd8d45dc76626f0f6da3a/flutter_sound_core-8.4.1.aar' contains references to both AndroidX and old support library. This seems like the library is partially migrated. Jetifier will try to rewrite the library anyway.
 Example of androidX reference: 'androidx/arch/core/util/Function'
 Example of support library reference: 'android/support/v4/media/session/MediaSessionCompat$Callback'

• Minor issue ? No - Major as adding Flutter_Sound_Lite increases RAM usage

• Real device ? Yes , Samsung S10+

Describe the bug When you run the sample audio service here and then interface with the front screen controls (press pause, stop button etc a few times) - app crashes and we get the stack trace shown.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Fork or run the sample app of audio_service https://github.com/ryanheise/audio_service/blob/07313c1aaee4551333bac3d8a9ab6198ac495b81/audio_service/example/lib/example_multiple_handlers.dart

1. Modify the pubspec.yaml to be :

  path_provider: ^2.0.1
  audio_session: 0.1.6+1
  just_audio: 0.9.12
  flutter_tts: 3.2.2
  rxdart: ^0.27.2
  audio_service:  0.18.0
  flutter_sound_lite: 8.4.1

i.e we have just added flutter_sound_lite 8.4.1

1. Build and run your app for Android on Simulator or Live device.
2. On the main screen of your devices, press the PAUSE button a few times and then STOP -> Your app crashes.
