aacdecoder-android accplayer fails stream music on 4.4.+

Question

There is a problem with HoloEverywhere and AACDecoder (com.spoledge.aacdecoder). When I try click play music from stream I get this:

12-13 09:50:33.044  24134-24225/com.example.aapxxx E/AACPlayer﹕ playAsync():
java.lang.NullPointerException
        at com.spoledge.aacdecoder.AACPlayer.dumpHeaders(AACPlayer.java:510)
        at com.spoledge.aacdecoder.AACPlayer.processHeaders(AACPlayer.java:497)
        at com.spoledge.aacdecoder.MultiPlayer.processHeaders(MultiPlayer.java:108)
        at com.spoledge.aacdecoder.AACPlayer.play(AACPlayer.java:280)
        at com.spoledge.aacdecoder.AACPlayer$1.run(AACPlayer.java:248)
        at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:841)

I've implemented all 4 files into lib and selected aacdecoder jar as source.
HoloEverywhere is using android v4 19 0 1
I stuck and don't know how to fix it.
I'm using Android Studio. I followed as in tutorial here
Please help what to do.
Thanks in advance.
I'm trying to be runnin on 4.4
Works on lower versions.

I could use notpackaged project with sources instead ready jar of accplayer but I don't know how to manage it. Maybe there is just any small bug in theirs code..

One shot in the dark...sometimes the connection to stream fails, if there's no User-Agent set. But I'm not sure if your problem is because of your headers.. so please provide more (code)information. just for the record -> this is how you could set heards with android Mediaplayer. Check if AACDecoder has something similar too...

    //Setting HTTP header for fixing some issues with normal setDataSource Header from Android
    //User-Agent "iTunes" was set to force re-direct to shoutcast streaming url     
    Map<String, String> headers = new HashMap<String, String>();
    headers.put("User-Agent", "iTunes");

    setDataSource(context, uri, headers);

    prepareAsync();
