Description

Hi,
New to github issues.

If I start a video, and then hit the back button, the app goes back to the previous screen and the videoPlayerController is disposed as expected.

If I start a video, **change screen orientation,** then hit the back button, the app goes back to the previous screen, but **I can still hear the audio in the background**.
I believe this is a bug?

```
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:swipedetector/swipedetector.dart';
import 'chewie_list_item.dart';
import 'package:video_player/video_player.dart';

class miniLesson extends StatefulWidget{
miniLesson({Key key}) : super(key: key);
@override
State createState() {
return new miniLessonState();
}
}

class miniLessonState extends State {
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
alignment:
Alignment.topCenter;
double deviceWidth = MediaQuery
.of(context)
.size
.width;
double deviceHeight = MediaQuery
.of(context)
.size
.height;
//setBannerQs();

return Scaffold(

new SwipeDetector(
child: Container(

//width: deviceWidth-15;
child: ChewieListItem(
videoPlayerController: VideoPlayerController.asset(
'assets/videos/IntroVideo.mp4',

looping: false,
),

),
),
);
}
}
