** Description changed: [ Impact ] gstreamer playback may hang after seeking. This affects all video/audio players that use gstreamer as their backend. The cause of the problem is a pulseaudio bug that was fixed in version 16.2 Some upstream bugs are QTBUG-122424, QTBUG-122423, https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/totem/-/issues/573 Here we backport the relevant patches: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pulseaudio/pulseaudio/-/merge_requests/745 https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pulseaudio/pulseaudio/-/merge_requests/764 [ Test Plan ] 1. Open a movie in the Totem video player - 2. Seek back and forth for a few minutes + 2. Repeatedly seek back and forth for a few minutes 3. Verify that the playback never hung 4. Verify that the audio plays correctly [ Regression potential ] libpulse0 is a critical component of Ubuntu Desktop. It provides the audio interface for all applications. A bug in libpulse0 may break audio input/output in one or many applications.
