Linux: Crash after pulse failed during recording: double free or corruption
Last modified: 2019-06-08 12:50:31 UTC
Revision: 11087, Ubuntu 10.10 64-bit I had left Audacity on sound-activated recording in another workspace. When I checked back after an hour, it had crashed. The recording probably never got started, because restarting the program and recovering the project produces nothing but an empty track. *** glibc detected *** ./audacity: double free or corruption

Is it reproducible? What are the steps to try to reproduce it (how did you create another workspace)? And the recovered track was empty rather than a length of silence?
Today, when trying to redo the recording, I found that PulseAudio has stopped working, so that was probably what led up to the crash. After restarting PulseAudio, well actually rebooting, I have not been able to reproduce it. The "workspace thing" is nothing but a different virtual desktop, nothing to do with Audacity. :-) > And the recovered track was empty rather than a length of silence? I would say a length of silence, if I recall correctly.
(In reply to comment #2) > The "workspace thing" is nothing but a different virtual desktop, nothing to > do with Audacity. :-) Yes I know but I didn't know if it was somehow relevant or exactly how you set this up in Ubuntu. In the hope it's a better description I've now called the bug "Crash after pulse failed during recording: double free or corruption" and demoted to P5 moonphase. I guess if you wanted to you could try killing pulseaudio during a test recording using pulse and see what Audacity does. Either way please post here if you see similar symptoms again.
Closing as "works for me".
