Hi,
Calling AntChannel.assign while opening a channel, sometimes generates a DeadObjectException
android.os.DeadObjectException

When this occurs, onChannelDeath() is called on the AntChannelEventHandler for all existing channels.
After this occurs, no further attempts to connect to devices succeed (although channels continue to generate search timeouts - RX_SEARCH_TIMEOUT).
Is there a way to recover from this situation without restarting the smartphone/tablet?
The tablet this is occurring on is a Samsung S2 9.7 running Android 7
