Hi,
Just wanted to highlight a bug over on Mozilla relating to a crash in the PPH plugin.
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=540460
It was initially though to be in PulseAudio, but on closer inspection this doesn't involve PA at all and in fact seems to relate to the PPH plugin from what I can gather.
The backtrace is here: https://bug540460.bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=422264
The user did submit a bug report to the bugtracker (https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=4878) but given previous experience there (see other mail!) I figured I'd post a message here to highlight it seeing as the reporter has already done a lot to try and work out what is going on and posting a message on his behalf seemed like a good idea :)
Hm, this is a horrible combination for debugging: a binary-only app plugin from another app.... The backtrace shows the function: that's good. But, it shows the very first line of the function. So, it can't tell where actually hits. It makes hard to guess...
And, I can't reproduce the bug.
The reporter can try the following, at least: - uninstall alsa-plugins package to see whether it's a speexrate plugin issue - update packages from OBS multimedia:audio:libs repo, to be sure, whether the problem got fixed in the later versions
