Checklist

• The issue observed is not already reported by searching on Github under https://github.com/video-dev/hls.js/issues
• The issue occurs in the stable client (latest release) on https://hlsjs.video-dev.org/demo and not just on my page
• The issue occurs in the latest client (main branch) on https://hlsjs-dev.video-dev.org/demo and not just on my page
• The stream has correct Access-Control-Allow-Origin headers (CORS)
• There are no network errors such as 404s in the browser console when trying to play the stream

Steps to reproduce

1. Play stream in the Android Chrome browser
2. Wait for 1-3 segments to pass
3. Error occurs and playback freezes

Expected behaviour

Playback works fine, same as on desktop browsers.

What actually happened?

Playback breaks and media recovery kicks in, starting it back up.
Stream works fine in desktop browsers and in some Android phones as well. It's hard to pinpoint what the exact issue is, maybe you will be able to help

Hi @drajvver,

Can you provide an HLS asset that can be used to reproduce the issue?
