Description Matthias Clasen 2013-06-07 18:26:23 UTC
We are seeing a somewhat frequent crash in pa_alsa_path_set_volume in Fedora 18 and 19. See 
https://retrace.fedoraproject.org/faf/problems/682670/
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=970557

I've asked Lennart about this, but he didn't have an immediate idea.

Any chance we could get verbose pulseaudio logs on this one? (log-level = debug in /etc/pulse/daemon.conf and repro the assert). That along with alsa-info would be a good start.

Here is a bug in Launchpad, that looks related, and has a lot of useful data that could be used to track this down, including a user who seems to regularly be able to reproduce.
