Crash on edit from the end

[Yani Raafezaj]

Binary package hint: audacity

I was editing an MP3 file; I played a part, removed a portion from the end of the file, then played back the last few remaining seconds. Audacity played it fine, but then when it stopped the output level meters froze, as did the toolbar with the play-stop buttons. If you put the cursor over them, they still light up as usual (tooltips too) but you can't click them and Audacity is stuck in play mode. The stop button doesn't work. You can still open menus, but most items are disabled because Audacity still thinks it's playing. If run from the console only the usual startup errors show:

bt_audio_service_open: connect() failed: Connection refused (111)
bt_audio_service_open: connect() failed: Connection refused (111)
bt_audio_service_open: connect() failed: Connection refused (111)
bt_audio_service_open: connect() failed: Connection refused (111)

Running on Ubuntu 9.10 with Audacity package 1.3.9-6.

Can you reproduce it with the daily build of audacity: https://launchpad.net/~audacity-team/+archive/daily

[Yani Raafezaj (ytraaf)]

No, it seems to be fixed. If I ever get it to crash again I'll repost.

I set the bug status to invalid. Please change it back to New, if you get audacity to crash again.
