playsound was used for testing.

Possible solutions are require BApplicaition initialization before using media kit (and fail if team attepts to use media kit before initalize BApplicaition) or use start_watching_system syscall.

Good catch, thanks. Though this has probably been the case forever.

I know my fix for #14755 does not deal with crashed apps in general, but this one also leaves resources in the media_server (even after waddlesplash's recent fix), though I suspect the buffers would be freed if I fix the crashing case in the BufferCache. We still want to remove the dead teams from the app manager and the nodes though...hopefully start_watching_system can work for that. In fact maybe I can use it for both cases...
