Are you sure you did debugfull and installed it properly?
Comment 5 jenrichmichael 2010-08-26 07:21:37 UTC 
Sorry about the long delay I was on vacation and so had no internet for awhile. I have discovered that though i did compile it with full debugging when you use makepkg to install it the debugging symbols are stripped. Attached please find the corrected(I hope) backtrace

kmix (3.9-alpha) on KDE Platform 4.6.00 (4.6.0) using Qt 4.7.1

- What I was doing when the application crashed:
I'm using my hot keys to increase\decrease volume. After that kmix crashes
- Custom settings of the application:

Avoid the null pointer access that triggers this crash

This patch uses the same null gard in increaseVolume and decreaseVolume.
This also explains why only the decreasing of the volume does induce a crash.
Comment 8 Christian Esken 2011-08-22 21:48:42 UTC 
Thanks for the patch. I manually adapted it to trunk, including the increaseOrDecreaseVolume() method. I'll close it once I apply it to branch 4.7. But I will only do the one important 0 pointer guard fix.
