I think there's a rule that object A shall not ref object B if B owns A. And here core owns everything, including the dbus objects. Nobody should ref core. It's then a bit strange why the core is refcounted in the first place, but I guess it's because the intention is to make the Pulseaudio core pluggable into other programs, and those other programs may want to have multiple references to the Pulseaudio core object. -- Tanu
