So gnome-shell doesn't want to log to syslog? I've attached a pulseaudio patch that makes gnome-shell log to files under /tmp. Btw, I now noticed that running "gnome-shell --replace" restarts gnome-shell and makes the log from the new instance go to the current terminal. > Anyway, here is a log from 2.99.2: > https://sourceforge.net/p/kaarpux/tickets/_discuss/thread/a1e6c549/cfd3/attachment/log_2_99_2.txt It looks like there are always two PLAY_SAMPLE requests. The first one is "bell-window-system", and the second is something that fails to play, it probably doesn't exist in pulseaudio's sample cache (there are no details logged for the failing sample - you may want to add some logging to command_play_sample() in src/pulsecore/protocol-native.c). The hang seems to happen when trying to play the second sample. -- Tanu -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
