[pulseaudio-discuss] [PATCH] Plug some memory leaks and an invalid read

There's still another invalid read reported by valgrind. The location
is the same as it was for the protocol-dbus.c error of the patch: the
hasmap_entry->key points to already freed memory.

 Invalid read of size 1

This one is more difficult to solve though, because the card.profile
is used in the hashmaps of two modules (alsa-card and dbus-protocol)
Any suggestions?
