Package: pulseaudio
Version: 7.1-2~bpo8+1
Severity: important
hi,
just try following to reproduce the problem, happended here manny times:
start an alsamixer so that it access pulseaudio, keep it running, maybe forgett
that its still running, and keep your system running. Then eventually
pulseaudio will have a problem crash and be restarted imidiatly, normaly you
wount recognise, only if you here that or if there is a programm like mumble
which dosnt manage to aoutomaticly reconnect to the new instance of pulse.
Than come back to your system, look at the system monitor and wounder why cpu
load is that high, open htop, or something similiar, and see that that alsa
using application, alsamixer, is using up every cpu it can with one thread
(100%). You kill it then of cause but you think that it could act much better.
This force overloading of a shared lib of an alsa application to force it to
use pulse even if it is not designed to seames in generall very proplematic.
Manny applications (mostly that one which are not only playing sound but doing
a bit more with the expected interface to alsa (which dosnt exist as espected))
dont act right with it at all...
So first of all: please fix the problem with that client side alsa2pulse
implementation which happens when pulse dies, and secoundly: why dont create a
kernel module which implements the full alsa interface to a real virtual
soundcard which is working with all old alsa applications without injecting
them just by being a "real" card in /dev/snd/ and not only a ghost that is not
realy existing and only working through hidden influences on that process
trying to use it by injecting them...
thanks in advance
