HLS Exoplayer stream not working on API Level 28

The HLS Stream is unable to play in devices and simulator which are running Android 9.0. The HLS Stream works on other devices and simulators which are running below API Level 28. The app is using the Exoplayer v2 library.

The error in the stack trace is as follows: 

E/ExoPlayerImplInternal: Source error.
