Capturing audio data and save to raw PCM file in AudioFlinger

After some research, I find out this is possible to capture the audio data in libaudioflinger of Android.

I think the audio data is being written to HAL in here:

ssize_t framesWritten = mNormalSink->write((char *)mSinkBuffer + offset, count);

Full code: https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/av/+/lollipop-release/services/audioflinger/Threads.cpp#2118

So, I would like to save the mSinkBuffer + offset to a file (which I expected it will be raw PCM audio file). I using those stream to write it to file:

std::ofstream audioData ("/data/audiodata.raw", std::fstream::app);
audioData.write((char *)mSinkBuffer + offset, count);
audioData.close();

The file is successfully written and it has data in it. But, when I play the PCM file (audiodata.raw) with aplay or ffplay, the only sound I got is noise.

aplay -t raw -c 2 -f S16_LE -r 48000 audiodata.raw

I was worry about the config of aplay. So I print some log of the libaudioflinger:

10-07 10:14:54.576  1300  1366 I AudioFlinger: Audio source: 0 (default)

I don't know what I did wrong. Please help me!

Thank you in advanced!
