[gst-devel] alsasink crashing when you restart a stopped pipeline

[iain]

Hey guys,

In my playing with alsasink I came across this bug. When you set the
state from GST_STATE_PLAYING to GST_STATE_READY, and then back to
GST_STATE_PLAYING again, alsasink crashes. Test program attached
compiling should be easy :) run it with 
./program ~/some.mp3 alsasink

It'll play 10 seconds of the mp3, and then stop, wait ten seconds and
crash.
If you change alsasink to osssink and run again, it'll play 10 seconds,
wait 10 play 10 seconds, wait 10...etc until you stop it.

Another error with alsasink seems to be that if you disable the timeout,
it plays the whole song through without problems until near the end when
it starts dumping 
** (test-gst-alsa:3079): WARNING **: alsa: poll reports error.
 constantly.

Backtrace: (4 is the event type that the event got, I added this myself)
** (test-gst-alsa:4966): WARNING **: got an event on alsasink 4
