Description

I was getting what seems to be a race condition or error when trying to pass `autoPlay: true` into a video widget implemented with Chewie.

I was able to work around by not using the `autoPlay` flag on Chewie, but adding a condition to a `then` function after `initialize()` completes. In this case, `widget` is my widget that implements Chewie.

_controller.initialize().then((_) {
if (widget.options.autoPlay) {
_controller.play();
}
});

But despite being able to work around it, this seems like a bug and that Chewie should be able to handle doing this (or the autoPlay flag should be removed).

Wondering if there is an issue awaiting the `_controller.initialize()` in the `chewie_player.dart` file in the initialize method.
