[Bug]: Video playback broken on Linux after 11.3.6 #9

Describe the bug

We've recently started testing our Avalonia app (which includes the media player and works relatively well on MacOS and Windows) on Linux.

We are currently running Debian 13 (with all the LibVLC dependencies installed).
We soon realized something was wrong with the media player... and started comparing our project with the accelerate sample. The sample did work with our H.264 videos and our Linux environment... however, I noticed it uses version 11.3.6 of the media player.

Any version higher than that (tested up to 11.3.8) and you get a black screen with some errors.

You can see the result on the following screenshots. Exact same code, exact same environment (and exact same video) the only thing that changed is the player version.

11.3.8:

11.3.6:

Any reason why this happens?
Did we miss anything?

(I do have additional minor grips... but right now this is the most worrying)
Thank you for your help!

To Reproduce

Compile the Accelerate project "MediaPlayerSample" with different versions of the "Avalonia.Controls.MediaPlayer" library.
