However, I am getting a variety of failures logged. -> E: object.c: Assertion 'pa_object_refcnt(o) > 0' failed at pulsecore/object.c:53, function pa_object_ref(). Aborting. -> Soft CPU time limit exhausted, terminating. Hard CPU time limit exhausted, terminating forcibly. -> Soft CPU time limit exhausted, terminating.
