Comment 1 Cosimo Cecchi 2008-03-03 00:17:09 UTC

-> GStreamer

This seems to be a crash in GStreamer, not the applet itself, moving to the right component.

Comment 2 Sebastian Dröge (slomo) 2008-03-03 04:30:07 UTC

This looks much like #513018. Could you try rebuilding the gstreamer alsa plugin against gst-plugins-base >= 0.10.17? IIRC Gentoo had both in different packages.

Comment 3 Sebastian Dröge (slomo) 2008-05-05 07:56:14 UTC

Ok, closing this bug now as no required information was given for months.
