#12624: media_addon_server fails at boot on hrev50047, requires manual 
kill/restart

 Priority:  normal                      |    Milestone:  Unscheduled

----------------------------------------+------------------------------
 Opening a known-good audio or video file after a fresh boot causes
 media_addon_server to crash, and spawn a Debugger process.  Manually
 killing the player's process and restarting both media_server and
 media_addon_server are necessary to fix the problem.

 Testing this using vlc launched from a shell prompt yields dozens of lines
 of the following error before the Debugger popped open:

 SoundPlayNode::FillNextBuffer: RequestBuffer failed

 It looks like something isn't being initialized correctly during boot for
 whatever reason, but manually restarting the servers afterwards does
 initialize correctly.

 Affected hardware: Lenovo Thinkpad T530
