It is likely that the issues related : here is the backtrace I got after applying your patch (without mine) #0 0xb7e9b520 in adjust_rates (u=0x80b3668) at modules/module-loopback.c:174 #1 0xb7e9d372 in sink_input_process_msg_cb (obj=0x80f2728, code=10, data=0x0, offset=0, chunk=0x0) at modules/module-loopback.c:530 #2 0xb7c31f9b in pa_asyncmsgq_dispatch (object=0x80f2728, code=10, userdata=0x0, offset=0, memchunk=0xbfffe96c) at pulsecore/asyncmsgq.c:322 #3 0xb7c320e1 in pa_asyncmsgq_flush (a=0x8100ea0, run=true) at pulsecore/asyncmsgq.c:347 #4 0xb7c990fa in pa_thread_mq_done (q=0x80a7da0) at pulsecore/thread-mq.c:107 #5 0xb7ced418 in stop_thread (u=0x80a7d70) at modules/bluetooth/module-bluetooth-device.c:2455 #6 0xb7cedf1f in card_set_profile (c=0x80a6a98, new_profile=0x80b1ed8) The origin is not the same, but it is likely that the consequences are the same.
