Hello, PulseAudio daemon crashes after starting the second stream. The first stream is playing with some audio glitches and then I start the second stream and it causes the server shutdown. I do not hear any audio afterwards. pulseaudio --system gst-launch filesrc location=some_mp3.mp3 ! mad ! audioconvert ! pulsesink latency-time=25000 buffer-time=2000000 & after few seconds and i launch another media playback gst-launch filesrc location=some_another_mp3.mp3 ! mad ! audioconvert ! pulsesink latency-time=25000 buffer-time=2000000 & And this causes PA shutdown. In ps I see that both the gst-launches are active and I do not hear any audio untill the PA is re-launched. See the attachemnt for PA traces. -Rgds Vallabha -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
