Apparently the problem is caused by the fact that A2dpAudioStreamOut::standby() calls a2dp_stop() after the headset has been powered down.
The workaround consists in indicating to A2DP audio hardware that a close request is pending and that stanby() must be bypassed.
If the output stream handler passed was not the A2DP output stream, the request was ignored instead of being forwarded downstream to hardware interface.
