iOS AVAudioSession Notify Thread crash.

Good day community,

More than half a year we faced the crash with following callstack:

We use Wwise audio framework as audio playback API. We did reported the problem to Audiokinetic's support, but it seems that the problem is not there. Also we used FMOD sound engine earlier, but we had the same issue.

At this time we have around 100 crash events every day, which makes us upset. Looks like it started from iOS 13. My main problem is that I don't communicate with AudioToolbox or AVFAudio API directly but use thirdparty sound engines instead.

I believe I am not the only who faced this problem. Also there is a discussion at https://forum.unity.com/threads/ios-12-crash-audiotoolbox.719675/

The last message deserves special attention: https://zhuanlan.zhihu.com/p/370791950 where Jeffrey Zhuang made a research. This might be helpful for Apple's support team.

Any help is highly appreciated. Best regards, Sergey.
