Android Question Using AudioStreamer with Android Emualtor - is it possible?

I have an app that I am writing that uses the AudioStreamer - it works fine on a real device. However I would like to at least test some of my code changes on the emulator. When I do that I get negative array exception on this line: streamer1.Initialize("streamer1",mSampleRate1, mMono1, mBitRate1, streamer1.VOLUME_SYSTEM). To me this implies that the emulator can't do audio - even though I created an AVD with Audio Play and record support?

I have searched google and get conflicting results if it is even possible to test the audio on the emulator? I don't actually have TO RECORD anying - even if it would just 'THINK' it's recording and let me continue my code that would great.

Thanks
Jim
