null object reference in AudioPublisher after stop()

[adam_k]

if i'm publishing audio with AudioPublisher and then call stop(), i get a null object reference, i've pasted the stack trace below.  the offending line of code is in AudioPublisher:976:

if ( _mic.codec.toLowerCase() == SoundCodec.NELLYMOSER.toLowerCase() )

_mic.codec is null.  i guess the codec gets set to null somehow after the publishing is stopped?

i really don't want to monkey patch AudioPublisher.  is there something i'm doing wrong? or some kind of workaround to avoid this?

TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

You and several of us have seen this; read the discussion here -> http://forums.adobe.com/message/4043881#4043881

* a related issue to switching mics too many times that caused that error is also here -> http://forums.adobe.com/message/4122004#4122004

For my problem, I ended up switching from

Offending code:   Microphone.getMicrophone( micIndex ); // mixIndex is most likely irrelevant here

Workaround:        MicrophoneManager.getInstance().selectedMic;

In your case you'd probably need to change when you stop the publishing in your code maybe....
