I think VJ Harry will like this release ! It fixes a crash in audio
triggered generators (e.g. projectM), also it reduces pulseaudio latency
for external audio (of course if you are using jack that is not really
important). Also it fixes things so playback can be done totally headlessly
using e.g. -nogui -noplaywin -nosplash -norecover -set <myset>.
