Reproduction

On Android, we've observed that when a user is in a call and plays a video, the audio output is switched to the SPEAKER, and the audio mode is changed to MODE_NORMAL. And after playing a video and then starting a call, there is still a problem with audio output and audio mode.

How to resolve

I found this PR introduced a change #3211 . In this change, the changeAudioOutput function was added during the initialization of the player core on Android. This function call forces the audio mode and audio output to change whenever a video is played, causing issues in calls.
We need to make this initialization process optional in the react-native-video library.
