Sorry, couldn't perform all requested tests.
There are alsa-specific commands while I'm using OSS.
These are the comamnds I couldn't permorm:

aplay --list-devices
tail -2 /proc/asound/oss/sndstat
amixer
asoundconf list
cat /etc/asound.conf ~/.asoundrc*

The outputs of commands performed are attached.

the issue seems to be an upstream one, could you open it on bugzilla.gnome.org too?

Reporting the bug upstream requires to have a stack trace, if am not wrong about filing it as a program crash. Can any of the users who reported/confirmed this bug provide me with a stack trace so it can be reported upstream? Thanks in advance.
