[Pkg-audacious-maintainers] Bug#601120: audacious: Hangs after a random amount of time playing music

[Dominic Hargreaves]

Package: audacious
Version: 2.3-2
Severity: important

Hi,

After upgrading from lenny to squeeze I've found that audacious
hangs anywhere between 10 seconds and 5 minutes after I start playing
a playlist.

When hung strace reports a tight loop of:

sched_yield()                           = 0

I haven't been able to find any common factors which would help explain
the hang, sorry. If you have any more suggestions for things to try to
debug, let me know.

Cheers,
Dominic.
