[Bug 792549] Re: Audacity freezes when clicking on the audio timeline during playback
Found a solution. Apparently there is a problem with Pulse Audio on linux, when you do start/stop too frequently. http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Linux_Issues PulseAudio: Audacity's PulseAudio support generally works well. PulseAudio doesn't support ALSA's mixer interface so Audacity's Mixer Toolbar input slider is disabled under PulseAudio. Audacity can freeze using PulseAudio if playback or recording are started or stopped very rapidly or frequently. Playback can also occasionally be distorted or excessively fast. Patches are welcomed to improve our PulseAudio support. Meantime a reported workaround for freezes or glitched or skipped playback is to launch Audacity from the terminal with the following command: env PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=30 audacity -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/792549 Title: Audacity freezes when clicking on the audio timeline during playback To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/audacity/+bug/792549/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Still in Ubuntu 16.04. Happens maybe 4-5 times per hour of editing (an audiobook). Just tried the Audacity 2.1.3-alfa and the problem is still there. Also happens on my second ubuntu system, so it must be a general problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/792549 Title: Audacity freezes when clicking on the audio timeline during playback To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/audacity/+bug/792549/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 792549] Re: Audacity freezes when clicking on the audio timeline during playback
2.0.5 on 14.04: audacity freezes about once every 3-5 minutes and has to be manually killed. All I'm doing is starting and stopping playback. Usually I listen to a few seconds of sound, then stop (SPACESPACE). Same happens sometimes if I'm recording (R...SPACE). I believe the freeze is always when I stop the playback/recording. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/792549 Title: Audacity freezes when clicking on the audio timeline during playback To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/audacity/+bug/792549/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Still happens in 2.0.5 on 14.04.

I confirm this happens frequently in 13.10 for me.

Here is a backtrace from a frozen session (all threads). I have now had it happen when clicking stop or pause in the audacity UI, and not just the timeline.
