PulseAudio crash after playing two streams

Hello,

PulseAudio daemon crashes after starting the second stream.

The first stream is playing with some audio glitches and then I start the second stream and it causes the server shutdown. I do not hear any audio afterwards.

pulseaudio --system

gst-launch filesrc location=some_mp3.mp3 ! mad ! audioconvert ! pulsesink latency-time=25000 buffer-time=2000000 &

after few seconds and i launch another media playback
 
gst-launch filesrc location=some_another_mp3.mp3 ! mad ! audioconvert ! pulsesink latency-time=25000 buffer-time=2000000 &

And this causes PA shutdown.

Just pasting my response on the mailing list here:

PA doesn't seem to shut down, but rather crash completely, it does not
even seem to output an assert which would normally be expected.

As this is a crash, you need to get the output from gdb and get a solid
backtrace. There are debugging tips on our Community wiki page: http://pulseaudio.org/wiki/Community#BugsPatchesTranslations

Also you are using 0.9.22, please try updating to PA 0.9.23
