# Description
AudioRelay crashes with the popup error "AudioRelay.exe: Child process exited with code 1" when the audio output
device (e.g. a Bluetooth TWS earphone) disconnects, sleeps, or is removed.
According to the generated `hs_err_pid54220.log`, the crash is caused by an `EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION
(0xc0000005)innative-rtaudio.dllduring cleanup. When the audio device disconnects, the stream stops and the application attempts to destroy the audio session viaRtAudioJni.destroy(), which triggers a null-pointer dereference (reading address 0x0000000000000000`):
