Android sound is broken

[Ali-RS]

It seems playing sound on Android has stopped working since we have updated the build script to build Android OpenAL natives by CI (since v3.3.0-alpha5).

Forum post:

Unless someone is willing to go through the pain of debugging the issue on the native side we probably better revert the build script to use the good old precompiled OpenAL natives (which we were using in pre 3.3.0-alpha5 releases) instead of rebuilding them by CI.

I concur. I'm also willing to cut a beta2 at any point we are sure we've resolved some of the more immediate issues we've found this past week.

We have a new report:

Edit:
This time with the error stack trace:

For now, one needs to use the 3.3.0-alpha2 for jme3-android-native.jar.
Note that you can yet use JME 3.3.0-stable or higher for other jars and you should be fine.

Need to be checked to see if commit 38a225c is affecting this issue.

It should not, it shouldn't change anything in the bytecode at all. Also note I did a followup commit as it was broken.
It is something we should resolve and debugging that will be funny, helpful but also take a long time, so I'm more seeing that for 3.5 or at least not immediate as part of 3.4 as we've got a lot of other things ahead.

The ogg error seems to be unrelated but also interesting

take a long time, so I'm more seeing that for 3.5 or...

I mean until then we can revert it back to use the good old prebuilt natives instead of having a broken API :)
