Pulseaudio Crashes Amarok

Reported by: workman161 Owned by: lennart
Milestone: Component: libpulse
Keywords: amarok crash Cc:

Description

Rather than dump the lengthy e-mail Amarok tries to send back to the developers that contains every single thread, I'll just give you the assert that kills the whole show:

amarokapp: pulsecore/memblock.c:191: mempool_allocate_slot: Assertion `*_head == _item' failed.

Its pretty much a random crash. It might be weeks of playing music or even minutes between crashes. What I can tell you though, is that I use the Xine output plugin and have pulseaudio-lib-0.9.6-2.fc7 installed. These crashes happen all the time with Amarok and PulseAudio while Amarok is redirected to my RTP output (that has loopback enabled)
