I've done some more digging, and it looks like the delay isn't related to the new version, or to moosic at all. It happens only with WAV files played by sox; my best guess is that it's a matter of how sox handles things internally, such that when it gets SIGSTOP or suchlike it (I imagine) lets a buffer run empty before fully stopping.
While investigating that, I also ran into two intermittent problems with the unpause command (and various related commands): one that occurs only with ogg123, and one that so far occurs only with MPlayer (which isn't used in the default moosic config). The latter isn't strictly moosic's problem, and I don't see anything moosic can do about it; the former isn't either, but moosic can avoid it by changing the way it handles sending SIGCONT when the target process is ogg123, so I've added a patch that does that. I haven't provided it here, since it's not related to the Python 3 transition, but it can follow later separately if appropriate. At least the MPlayer-related problem has been confirmed, with testing, to also occur with the existing 1.5.6 Python 2 version of moosic. From my understanding of the other two problems, I fully expect them to occur there as well. As best I can determine, none of them are new issues. -- The Wanderer The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
