Android 12 media experience is a mess
After being in the beta and having no issues, it was a surprise to see so many bugs just from the media side of things in Android 12. This is a list of bugs I deal with daily:
1. Switching media sources doesn't always stop the previous source, resulting in both audio sources playing at the same time.
2. Audio will just cut out randomly and not come back, I either have to force close the app or restart my phone for it to work again.

I wish they didn't get rid of translucency in Android 12
I got my Pixel 6 in today and so far it's pretty good! But one of the big things I noticed was that the notification shade, multitasking menu, and app drawer, all kinda look like garbage? At least compared to my previous LG G8X and LG G7 One.
