I've discussed this with Gregor on IRC and we came to the conclusion that disabling audio by default plus adding the above mentioned warning should suffice to downgrade this issue from RC to important. Due to the Jessie release date being quite close[1] and this being one of the bug reports listed on [2], I plan to do an NMU with the above mentioned characteristics either directly to unstable or at most to DELAYED-1 -- mostly depending on how quickly I manage to get a suitable package. So answer soon if you disagree.

(And this is one more reason for me to continue to avoid it...) Despite my disliking of pulseaudio, I think that a "Conflicts: pulseaudio" is not a good way to "fix" this issue, especially since it seems to work fine on the console even if pulseaudio is installed. Some other ideas come to my mind: * A wrapper script which checks the above mentioned condition (X + pulseaudio) and either warns plus exits or, if possible, just removes all indicators for pulseadio (environment variables or whatever it uses to indicate its present). * Downgrading the bug to "important" again (which IMHO is now even more the most appropriate severity) and adding a paragraph to README.Debian or similar to mention this issue.

Bug#761023: [bb] Visual stops when audio starts
I did a few extra tests: - bb works fine with the music on the console (no X). - I had the same bug on X. Uninstalling pulseaudio - and rebooting - fixed the issue. - I tried compiling with --disable-libmikmodtest, but video also freezes when pulse-audio is there. -- Nirgal My skype account was deleted by M$ without reason: Bye bye pulseaudio :) And welcome back sound hotkeys on my Asus! signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Yeah, after the audio starts, timestuff() seems never to return again. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
