--- Comment #7 from nyanpasu64 <[email protected]> ---
Incredibly I've found that *playing* the second file *on another computer* (in
Audacious) can *remotely* trigger >100% CPU usage.

- Both computers are running KDE and linked via KDE Connect.
- I played 2album.flac in Audacious media player (VLC should also work?). I
think this transmits the album art to the computer sitting on its lock screen.
- Pausing the player stops CPU burn until I next stop and start playback
(unpausing doesn't resume CPU burn). I suspect this is because the lock screen
defaults to "No title\n Choose player automatically".

The CPU burn only happens when the screen is *black*. If I wait for the
password field to disappear (but the clock is still visible), then start
playback, I can no longer trigger CPU burn (even with screen off) until I
unlock and lock the screen again. I think this is because the album art
QQuickImage gains a "stable" size (rather than infinitely looping) and keeps it
for the remainder of the process lifetime.
