The problem is that Python only delivers the signal when the interpreter is
running but your program is sat in the Qt event loop. You need to force Qt to
hand back to the interpreter from time to time.
The easiest way is to use the object timer. Add "self.startTimer(500)" to your
__init__() method and add the following dummy timer event handler...
def timerEvent(self, e):
pass
