[BUG] Camera not working on Android Automotive 12

Subject: Bug in Azure Communication Services Calling Library regarding the video calling functionality - Issue on Android Automotive 12

Description:

I have encountered an issue in the Azure communications Service library regarding the camera while working on Android Automotive OS. The problem seems to occur under specific conditions, and I believe it might be a bug.

Steps to Reproduce:

Opening the App using Android Automotive OS environment.

Attempt to use the Azure communications service library to access the front cameras.

• Initializing Video Call

1. Initializing a CommunicationIdentifier
2. Initializing and setting StartTeamsCallOptions
3. Starting call

    private void createTeamsIndividualCall() {
        CommunicationIdentifier calleeId = new MicrosoftTeamsUserIdentifier(teamsCallAddress);
        StartTeamsCallOptions options = new StartTeamsCallOptions();
        setCallOptions(options);
        try {
            teamsManager.call = ((TeamsCallAgent) teamsManager.callAgent).startCall(
                    getApplicationContext(),
                    calleeId,
                    options);
            finishCallSetup();
        } catch (Throwable throwable) {
            ...
        }
    }

    private void setCallOptions(CallOptions callOptions) {
        if (teamsManager.getDeviceManager() != null) {
            List<VideoDeviceInfo> cameras = teamsManager.getDeviceManager().getCameras();
            if (!cameras.isEmpty()) {
                teamsManager.camera = chooseCamera(cameras);
                teamsManager.currentVideoStream = new LocalVideoStream(teamsManager.camera, getApplicationContext());

                if (videoOn.get()) {
                    List<OutgoingVideoStream> videoStreams = new ArrayList<>();
                    videoStreams.add(teamsManager.currentVideoStream);
                    OutgoingVideoOptions outgoingVideoOptions = new OutgoingVideoOptions();
                    outgoingVideoOptions.setOutgoingVideoStreams(videoStreams);
                    callOptions.setOutgoingVideoOptions(outgoingVideoOptions);
                }
                ...
        }

        callOptions.setOutgoingAudioOptions(new OutgoingAudioOptions().setMuted(!audioOn.get()));
    }

• Video Renderer Initialization

1. Initialize VideoStreamRenderer
2. Create a view with ScalingMode.Fit
3. Add the VideoStreamRenderer to a container view

        try {
            previewRenderer = new VideoStreamRenderer(stream, this);
            preview = previewRenderer.createView(new CreateViewOptions(ScalingMode.FIT));
        } catch (Exception exception) {
            ...
        }
        runOnUiThread(() -> {
            try {
                if (rendererView != null) {
                    FrameLayout container = findViewById(R.id.video_container_cv);
                    ViewGroup dataRendererViewParent = (ViewGroup) rendererView.getParent();
                    if (dataRendererViewParent != null) {
                        dataRendererViewParent.removeView(rendererView);
                 }
                container.addView(rendererView);
            }
            } catch (Exception exception) {
                ...
            }
        });

Observe that the camera does not function as expected.

Expected Behavior:
The camera should work properly on Android Automotive 12, allowing access to test bench's cameras, Front/0 and Front/1.

Actual Behavior:
The render view does not display the camera feed neither is any video stream sent to other participants in the call.

Environment Details:

Product Name & Version: Azure Communication Services Calling 2.11.0

OS Version: Android Automotive 12

Camera Details: The test bench used has two camera, Front/0 and Front/1.

Additional Information:

This bug is not present in standard Android devices only in Android Automotive.

The Camera2 API implementation works correctly, suggesting the issue is isolated to the ACS library.

We'll share more information about the system's image when available.

Thank you for your assistance. Please let me know if you need any further details to investigate the problem.
