Hi, I'm trying to debug a gtk app on Ubuntu Karmic that crashes from time to time when I open a dialog. Lately, I have found a precise sequence of UI actions that always reproduces the bug (I open a dialog, pick an option, click or enter ok, then re-open the dialog.) But many other sequences crash my app too. And I always get this error:
Assertion 'pthread_setspecific(t->key, userdata) == 0' failed at pulsecore/thread-posic.c:200, function pa_tls_set(). Aborting. So my app seems to crash because an error in pulseaudio, which is strange. I made some google searches and apparently, this problem exists with other apps (Abiword, Flash support in Firefox, Gimp, ...) Then, following a suggestion in a bug report, I opened 'sound-preferences' and disabled 'window and button sounds'. And then, no more crashes, ever. I've already posted on this list about the problem and I don't want to spam. But I've been re- checking my sources many times since last month, unsuccessfully. Then my app used to be very stable a couple of months ago and I have checked all the last changes I have made lately. So the question is: could all this relate to an upgrade to Karmic or a newer version of pulseaudio? I know that gtk handles events from windows and buttons and so does pulseaudio. Could it possibly be a bug in pulseaudio on ubuntu (instead of in my app?) Does anyone have an idea of what's going on? Thanks in advance for any clue. -- Emmanuel Thomas-Maurin _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
