Description ratijas 2024-07-14 15:07:57 UTC 
SUMMARY
Audio data is not being played, and the QMediaPlayer object is left lingering for eternity in a QMediaPlayer::BufferingMedia state. I added some relevant debug prints, and observed that when buffer data is assigned this happens:

> player status changed to QMediaPlayer::LoadingMedia
> [mp3 @ 0x6ffddc001440] Estimating duration from bitrate, this may be inaccurate
> player status changed to QMediaPlayer::LoadedMedia

and after the player->play() slot is called, additional last event happens:

> player status changed to QMediaPlayer::BufferingMedia


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Download script from https://iterm2.com/documentation-images.html
2. Add `printf ";inlineMedia=1"` line somewhere in the middle of its print_image function — this tells Konsole to take the `if (inlineMedia) { player = new QMediaPlayer(this); }` code path.
3. Run your modified imgcat script with some mp3 file as an argument.

OBSERVED RESULT
No audio is played.

EXPECTED RESULT
Audio should play.

Fix playing audio for OSC attribute 1337 and inlineMedia=1 parameter

The player was basically stuck in the QMediaPlayer::BufferingMedia
state, never playing or deleting itself. I guess this still could
happen on systems without valid audio outputs.
