The equalizer toggle appended to the transport controls was aborting the
whole notification. controls feeds BOTH the phone notification and the
car playback screen, and AudioService.setState walks every control
through createCustomAction (AudioService.java:513-520) BEFORE reaching
mediaSession.setPlaybackState (:552) and enterPlayingState (:559) -- the
only place the notification is ever posted.
createCustomAction resolves the icon by name via getIdentifier (:415-420),
which returns 0 on a miss, and passes it to
PlaybackStateCompat.CustomAction.Builder, which throws on a 0 icon or an
empty label. That throw aborts setState, so the media session is never
published: no shade widget, no lock-screen controls, not even the small
status-bar icon. ExoPlayer runs independently so audio keeps playing, and
until asyncError got a subscriber the exception was dropped silently.
Nothing is lost in the car: the Ecualizador browse folder already lists
Desactivar plus every preset by name, which is Auto's own idiom for
choosing among options.
