[Android] Application crashes upon loading the SkinnedMesh sample after displaying asserts

[LB-KacperKapusta]

Describe the bug
AtomSampleViewer application crashes on Android device upon loading the SkinnedMesh sample after the displayed asserts are ignored.

Please refer to the attached video for more information. Please note that Game.log found on the device does not seem to have been generated correctly (might be related to o3de/o3de#12039).

The issue should be considered Critical priority.

First assert:

File:
C:/o3de/Gems/Atom/RHI/Vulkan/Code/Source\RHI/Vulkan.h

Condition:

void AZ::Vulkan::AssertSuccess(VkResult)

ASSERT: Vulkan APKI method failed: Device lost

Line:
102

Second assert:

File:
C:/o3de/Gems/Atom/RHI/Vulkan/Code/Source/RHI/SwapChain.cpp

Condition:

auto AZ::Vulkan::SwapChain::PresentInternal():(anonymousclass)::operator()(void *) const

Unhandled error for swapchain presentation.

Line:
332

Prerequisites

• AtomSampleViewer project is built for Windows.
• Assets for the Android platform are enabled and have been processed.
• All the required environment variables are set as described in the instructions: https://o3de.org/docs/user-guide/platforms/android/generating_android_project_windows/.

In this test the following settings have been used:

SET O3DE_ENGINE_PATH=C:\o3de
SET O3DE_PROJECT_PATH=C:\o3de-atom-sampleviewer
SET O3DE_BUILD_ROOT=C:\o3de-build

SET O3DE_ANDROID_SIGNCONFIG_FILE=%O3DE_BUILD_ROOT%\o3de.keystore
SET O3DE_ANDROID_SIGNCONFIG_STORE_PASSWORD=o3de_android
SET O3DE_ANDROID_SIGNCONFIG_KEY_ALIAS=o3de_key
SET O3DE_ANDROID_SIGNCONFIG_KEY_PASSWORD=o3de_android
SET O3DE_ANDROID_SIGNCONFIG_KEY_SIZE=2048
SET O3DE_ANDROID_SIGNCONFIG_VALIDITY_DAYS=10000
SET O3DE_ANDROID_DN="cn=atom-sample-viewer, ou=o3de, o=LF, c=US"

set O3DE_ANDROID_SDK_PATH=C:\Android\Sdk
set O3DE_ANDROID_NDK_VERSION=22.1.7171670
set O3DE_ANDROID_SDK_API_LEVEL=30
set O3DE_ANDROID_ASSET_MODE=LOOSE
set O3DE_ANDROID_DEPLOY_TYPE=BOTH

Steps to reproduce

1. Generate KeyStore to allow APK signing:
   keytool -genkey -keystore %O3DE_ANDROID_SIGNCONFIG_FILE% -storepass %O3DE_ANDROID_SIGNCONFIG_STORE_PASSWORD% -alias %O3DE_ANDROID_SIGNCONFIG_KEY_ALIAS% -keypass %O3DE_ANDROID_SIGNCONFIG_KEY_PASSWORD% -keyalg RSA -keysize %O3DE_ANDROID_SIGNCONFIG_KEY_SIZE% -validity %O3DE_ANDROID_SIGNCONFIG_VALIDITY_DAYS% -dname %O3DE_ANDROID_DN%
2. Use Python to run generate_android_project.py:
   %O3DE_ENGINE_PATH%\python\python.cmd %O3DE_ENGINE_PATH%\cmake\Tools\Platform\Android\generate_android_project.py --engine-root %O3DE_ENGINE_PATH% --project-path %O3DE_PROJECT_PATH% --build-dir %O3DE_BUILD_ROOT%\android --third-party-path %USERPROFILE%\.o3de\3rdParty --android-sdk-path %O3DE_ANDROID_SDK_PATH% --android-ndk-version %O3DE_ANDROID_NDK_VERSION% --android-sdk-platform %O3DE_ANDROID_SDK_API_LEVEL% --enable-unity-build --asset-mode %O3DE_ANDROID_ASSET_MODE% --signconfig-store-file %O3DE_ANDROID_SIGNCONFIG_FILE% --signconfig-store-password %O3DE_ANDROID_SIGNCONFIG_STORE_PASSWORD% --signconfig-key-alias %O3DE_ANDROID_SIGNCONFIG_KEY_ALIAS% --signconfig-key-password %O3DE_ANDROID_SIGNCONFIG_KEY_PASSWORD%
3. Build the Android project:
   cd %O3DE_BUILD_ROOT%\android
gradlew assembleProfile
4. Deploy the project to a device:
   %O3DE_ENGINE_PATH%\python\python.cmd %O3DE_ENGINE_PATH%\cmake\Tools\Platform\Android\deploy_android.py --build-dir %O3DE_BUILD_ROOT%\android --configuration profile --clean -t %O3DE_ANDROID_DEPLOY_TYPE%

Expected behavior
The SkinnedMesh sample can be loaded without issues in the AtomSampleViewer android application.

Actual behavior
The AtomSampleViewer android application crashes upon loading the SkinnedMesh sample.
