What
AudioStream.writeso that it raises RuntimeError("…disconnected")when the configured output device disappears.
_device_helpers.is_device_alive()(sounddevice-based).test_device_disconnect.py.Why
Fixes #411.
Previously, if the user unplugged speakers/headphones during streaming,
AudioStream.write()blocked forever. This killed Safe-and-Sound pipelines(and any real-time player) because there was no way to detect the failure.
How to reproduce (before this patch)
After (with this patch)
AudioStream.write()now raises:RuntimeError: Output device '…' disconnected.
Test plan
pytest -q tests/test_device_disconnect.py # 1 passed (or skipped on headless)
CI matrix (Linux/macOS/Windows) is green.
