Bug Description

[Description]

This bug affects both E4.5 and E5 devices, as reported by some users on IRC. I use:

OS build number: 5
Ubuntu image part: 20150825.1
Device build: VEGETA01A-S23A_BQ_L100EN_2005_150825
Customization image part: 20150821-887-33-32-vivid

[Reproduction]

Whenever I try to record a video on my E5 and I switch in the camera app from taking pictures to record videos and hit the record button the phone freezes.

Update: I tried before about 6 times and I got the above, now I tried again, I got prompted this time to allow mic access and recording all of a sudden works. Some users on IRC reported still having the issue but in different ways. I hope they will respond to this bug or file new ones.

I can confirm this bug on my Bq E 4.5.
Not the whole phone freezes, but the camera app.
In the system settings, no app has access to the microphone. The camera app never asked for access.
After some trying and fiddling, I could get the camera app to record video, but without sound.

After a reboot, the camera app asked for microphone access, and now it works.

Patrik, Nobody: I guess one reboot after the update that brought in the "prompt the user for mic access" feature was necessary. Can we close?
