same problem observed in the latest pidgin 2.5.8 in jaunty... similar issue observed in version 2.5.5 as well. whenever I enable sound to alsa, it would crash as soon as sound is being produced in system. so to get pidgin to work for the time being I have to disable sound totally. other sound programs function normally.
I produce the crash just by enabling sound and preview a sound example. then it would crash. 100% of the time. I capture crash with backtrace and valgrind separately. ** Attachment added: "crash report backtrace with sound enabled" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/29834026/gdb-pidgin.txt -- pidgin freezes when using sound https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/357229 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
