@Seth, after fixing the action plugins (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/kicad/+bug/1831669) and applying your patch on top of that patch, I no longer see the crash.
An interesting thing that I noted as well is that the crash only happened when pcbnew was launched from the kicad window, not when I had launched it standalone. So there were probably some timing issues going on.
