If I am not at the computer to turn off the alarm, it keeps sounding. This may continue overnight. When I get back to the computer, it is very slow, swapping all over the place and top shows kmix using a very large amount of memory (last time was 2.3G 'res'). Killing kmix from a console is only way to get back control of the computer, this fixes the problem and I can continue using the computer as normal. Reproducible everytime. This was happening with the 4.6 betas I think, it has just been recently when I left my computer on over the holiday weekends and the alarm went off continuously that I noticed it and was able to workout what was going wrong. The alarm in kalarm is a simply daily audio alarm, with the kde_sys_log_in.ogg sound. Reproducible: Always 1081039 1 yehielb 2011-01-30 10:59:18 +0000 not exactly the same problem but probably related, not using kalarm kmix is using about 260MB and about 40% cpu time, happens everytime, trying to open the kmix interface to shut it down is not working, and so I have to kill the process every time. kdemultimedia-4.5.5-1.fc13.i686 Thanks, YB. 1086054 2 diaasami 2011-02-09 23:25:56 +0000 Ubuntu 10.10 here with updated KDE from kubuntu-ppa I think I have the same problem, I think this started happening after the last update of KDE to 4.5.5, I can't figure out what triggers it though. I leave my computer on and when I come back from work I find kmix using 100% of 1 core(25% CPU usage) and a huge amount of memory, usually 1GB+, I have to kill kmix and run it again. 1097070 3 kent 2011-03-14 20:27:11 +0000 Fedora 14 (2.6.35.11-83.fc14.x86_64 - KDE 4.5.5) From KDE4-startup KMix uses 45-50% CPU, and I can't adjust the volume or left-click on the KMix icon. I have to kill KMix. If I restart KMix it immediately uses 45-50% and the KMix icon doesn't show again. A new session brings back KMix but also the large CPU usage. Workaround: Using PulseAudio Volume control 1161354 4 esken 2011-09-09 23:39:52 +0000 You might suffer from a bug that wrote bad profiles. Remove the defective profiles like this: a) Quit KMix (CTRL-q) b) Remove but keep profiles in a shell like Konsole: mv ~/.kde*/share/apps/kmix/profiles/* ~ c) Run KMix again Please report back whether this helped. For not getting the problem again, please upgrade to a recent KDE version. 1206796 5 esken 2011-12-30 18:42:23 +0000 Either it is the profile thing or the 100% CPU issue.
