Actually I don't know if I have the exact same trouble, since in my case, pidgin totally freezes. I have tried what Marquer suggested, but I didn't have the expected output.
Anyway, I ran pidgin in debug mode for some time expecting to find the specific event that triggered the froze; after some time (and a lot of output) I found the following error : (22:52:27) gstreamer: Failed to connect stream: Invalid argument -- Pidgin freezes sporadically in Intrepid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/272632 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
