Other information:
Nautilus seems to black totally, not to hangs due to CPU usage
It's 100% reproductible for me.

        grab_widget = (GtkWidget *) 0x8511240
        window_group = (GtkWindowGroup *) 0x8420b70
        next_event = <value optimized out>
        rewritten_event = (GdkEvent *) 0x0
        tmp_list = <value optimized out>

Comment 2 Martin Wehner 2006-01-28 15:17:15 UTC

Looks like esd might hang on opening the sound device for the audio-preview. Could you try to confirm?

Comment 3 Baptiste Mille-Mathias 2006-02-04 15:54:30 UTC

Hello Martin,

unfortunately I had to reinstall my distro due to a disk failure. But I can confirm you I had the problem on all folders with audio files inside.
