In most cases, we use dbuus from more than one thread, as we

Yeah, saw that just as I posted the patch. My stupid touchpad moves my mouse pointer when I don't want it to, and so I end up writing characters in the wrong location. Usually I discover it and undo it, but not this time it seems.


e g enable real-time scheduling from the ALSA threads.
Therefore set dbus to thread-safe mode by default, as recommended
in https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47060#c5

This fixes a bug where PulseAudio could crash in two parallel
calls to pa_make_realtime.

Is that going to be in the default log level output? If yes the message
should be more elaborate. Is there a place this is described? Or can
that only fail if the D-Bus configuration is totally messed up?

The latter. According to the bug comment this is likely only happening on OOM.
