    Description

      Attempting to use QMediaPlayer to play an ogg vorbis (or mp3) results in no media playback and this error:

      D/Qt MediaPlayer( 3297): Attempt to invoke virtual method 'android.content.ContentResolver android.content.Context.getContentResolver()' on a null object reference

      Related to this, this error appears on initialization when adding "multimedia" dependency. From what I can gather, it occurs when the QtMultimediaUtils are added to the android.app.static_init_classes.

      I've attached a minimal example of this in action.
