[Bug] Navigating back from MediaElement and calling DisconnectHandler results in crash

[Sjors Miltenburg]

Description

I have the mediaelement working on windows to play my video.
But when i navigate back and, as per the documentation, try to release the resources by calling
MyMediaElement.Handler?.DisconnectHandler();
during unload. It crashes with a Catastrophic Failure Exception.

I found multiple issues reporting this problem (like this one: CommunityToolkit/Maui#962), but all issues seem to have been closed as in "fixed". So I don't understand why I'm still seeing this behaviour with the latest version.
Or maybe the documentation is outdated and we no longer need to call the DisconnectHandler method??

I'm using

• CommunityToolkit.Maui 5.2.0
• CommunityToolkit.Maui.MediaElement 2.0.0
