Package: libasound2
Version: 1.2.4-1
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected], [email protected]
Control: notfound -1 1.2.3.2-1+b1
The latest libasound2 introduced a severe regression:
Starting musescore3 and loading a score, e.g. like this…
$ musescore3 /usr/share/mscore3-3.2/demos/Reunion.mscz
… quickly brings the whole system down because it spits tons of lines…
Alsa_driver: recover: pcm_status(): Broken pipe
… to the xterm in which it was invoked.
Running it without output…
$ musescore3 /usr/share/mscore3-3.2/demos/Reunion.mscz >/dev/null 2>&1
… just results in…
PID USER NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
24181 tglase 0 871224 218944 73920 D 100.0 2.7 0:06.67 musescore3
/usr/share/mscore3-3.2+
… and the user has to kill the offending program by ^Cing in the terminal
(as killing when in “D” state cannot work).
This is where I started:

Downgrading to…

ii libasound2:i386 1.2.3.2-1+b1

ii libasound2-data 1.2.3.2-1

ii libatopology2:amd64 1.2.3.2-1+b1
amd64 shared library fo>
… allowed this to work again, and libatopology2:amd64 (which could be
individually upgraded) quickly turned out to be unconnected. So this
is clearly something in libasound2 and/or libasound2-data.
Playing music with mpg123 _does_ work with 1.2.4-1 so this is tricky.
I’m not filing it with RC severity as it doesn’t impact “all” use, but
this is, very much, a showstopper IMHO.
