AndroidStudio emulator cannot take photo: The camera device has encountered a serious error

I'm working with an Android emulator (api 29) and when I try to capture a photo like this:

imageCapture?.takePicture(cameraExecutor, object : ImageCapture.OnImageCapturedCallback() {
...
  override fun onCaptureSuccess(image: ImageProxy) {
   ....
   // should show a preview before sending the picture to the web service
  }

}

it freezes. This only happens with an emulator!

I have the following error:

D/Camera2CameraImpl: {Camera@683e74c[id=0]} Resetting Capture Session
E/CameraCaptureSession: Session 0: Exception while stopping repeating: 
    android.hardware.camera2.CameraAccessException: CAMERA_ERROR (3): The camera device has encountered a serious error

I've also faced this same problem in pixel 3 (sdk 31). This was indeed the problem with the emulator.

Thanks to #Krahmal (Topic's main comment section) helped to fixed a part of the problem but not 100%

For my case pixel 4 with android 10 (sdk 29) working fine(which may not in your case). Although it works with physical device.

Thanks
