Bug ID: 433159
Summary: Changing audio output crashes plasmashell
Product: plasma-pa
Version: 5.21.0
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: applet

journal log with 3 crashes
SUMMARY
I have a few virtual sinks to record audio in a separate track, when I switched
the audio of an application to the virtual sink it crashed plasmashell. The
crash happens after selecting an output then switching back to the Devices tab.
I'm able to reproduce it fairly reliably but there are some inconsistencies.
Most of the time the crash only happens 1 time per application, after a crash
on a given application it "fixes" and works as expected but then starting a new
application and switching the output for that cause plasma to crash again.
Inconsistencies:
1) after 4-5 crashes it seemed to "fix" itself but I didn't do a lot of testing
for this, I just went through multiple applications to see if it crashes every
time but it just stopped crashing after that.
2) even though most of the time it fixed itself for a given application after a
crash, one time it kept crashing for the same app when switching the output
back and forth multiple times.
After it "fixes" itself for an application simply reloading plasmashell can
reintroduce the issue.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have a secondary output
2. Have an application with sound output open then bring up the audio applet
and go to Applications tab
3. Switch the output for the application to something else and go back to
Devices tab
OBSERVED RESULT
plasmashell crashes when clicking to go back to the Devices tab
EXPECTED RESULT
not crashing
