Fixed an audio bug on iOS. On iOS 17, if a Bluetooth audio device is connected, and "Prepare iOS for Recording" is un-checked, the C# Microphone.Start function could cause Unity to hang.
This bug report came in via the Unity forums:
I wanted to raise awareness of reports we are receiving from customers that our application hangs when we attempt to Microphone.Start Microphone.devices. This is isolated (so far) to:
1) customers that have paired Bluetooth "hearing devices" such hearing aids or cochlear implants
2) customers after updating to iOS 17 (no issues reported on iOS 16 with hearing devices)
