The session starts, but audio is partly broken. Specifically, some audio that uses the system stack (like OMX? I apologize, I'm not very familiar with Android) cannot be played, such as the built-in music app. However, apps like VLC can play the audio. The log shows: `E/WOmxObserver-impl( 213): LWOmxObserver::onMessages - Transaction failed`. When I downgraded the kernel to `6.17.9-arch1-1`, this problem disappeared. I looked at the Arch Linux build options and suspect the following section is the cause. After I changed these parameters back to their original values ​​from the previous version, Waydroid started working correctly. ```diff @@ -10912,8 +10989,8 @@ CONFIG_USB4=m # # Android # -CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDER_IPC=y -CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDERFS=y +# CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDER_IPC is not set +CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDER_IPC_RUST=y CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDER_DEVICES="" # end of Android ``` # Additional info: <!--The exact package version is compulsory.--> * package version: 6.18.1.arch1-2 * Waydroid version: 1.6.0 * link to Waydroid bug report: https://github.com/waydroid/waydroid/issues/2157 # Steps to reproduce: <!--Describe how to reproduce the bug step by step including the commands--> 1.
