The wire is healthy: drainOneGroup logs show every group reaching the
receiver with 5 frames each, no drops, no parse errors, no pump exits,
no announce-ended teardown. Yet the green ring on the receiver still
blinks-and-stops. The bug must be in the playback pipeline below
drainOneGroup. Add NestPlay-tagged logs there so the next repro
identifies whether the failure is decoder, AudioTrack allocation,
beginPlayback, or write-blocking.
NestPlayer.play (`NestPlay` tag):
- log start with prerollFrames
- log preroll flush + beginPlayback transition
- throttled per-N counters: receivedObjects / decodedFrames /
emptyDecodes / enqueued
- log decoder.decode throws explicitly
- log empty-pcm decoder returns (separate from throws)
- log enqueue duration when > 50 ms (catches AudioTrack.write-blocking)
- log flow COMPLETED / cancelled / pipeline threw with final counts
AudioTrackPlayer (`NestPlay` tag):
- log start() + the constructed AudioTrack's state / playState /
bufferSizeBytes / minBuffer
- log beginPlayback's t.play() return + post-call state
- log AudioTrack.write partial / error returns
- log setMuted / setVolume changes (silent mute is a known
suspect for "audio not playing")
MediaCodecOpusDecoder (`NestPlay` tag):
- log codec name on successful allocation
- log allocation failure with exception type / message
All log calls use the lambda overload so format work only runs when
the tag is enabled. Throttled counters keep logcat at < 1 line/sec
per speaker even at 50 fps capture cadence.
