gstavauddec could not drain decoder after hlsdemux switching bitrate

[Sirius Wu]

Hi,

I'm modifying Android tutorial 5 for a HLS player. The branch used is
1.16.1.

I encountered the issue in
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gst-plugins-bad/issues/189, so I
do not use omx.google.aac.decoder. I do not know why the bug is still not
fixed on 1.16.1. I use that from libav instead.

Now the player plays HLS links with a constant connection-speed perfectly.
But if hlsdemux switches bitrate, buffering drops under 10% immediately.

I examined the following logs, it seams that gstavauddec cannot drain
decoder after switching bitrate, which leads to the buffering problem.

Is there a bug in gstreamer's code which results in this issue?

Or is this buffering problem can be solved by turing buffer-duration or
buffer-size?
