I've just seen this same problem again in another meeting, again with an Insors node causing the problems. They were showing up initially in rat with two entries. The operator there stopped the audio tool, and one of them went away, but the other remained. Rat still crashed immediately upon connection for everyone else. I tried rat 4.2.22 and 4.2.16 with the same behaviour. We changed venues, and then everything was fine (even with the insors node present).
Rat was crashing with two different errors: rat-4.2.22-media: cc_vanilla.c:298: vanilla_decoder_peek: Assertion `done <= len' failed. And rat-4.2.22-media: util.c:87: _block_alloc: Assertion `size > 0' failed. This is a very annoying bug!
