If it freezes doesn't kwin ask you to terminate the application? And if that happens, doesn't then drkonqi show up to report a bug about this? Created attachment 185966 [details]
Crash log
Here is the crash report.
> most of desktop applications would end up freezing when accessing the audio devices This sounds like a deeper problem than just what we can fix in KDE. It seems quite serious. I'd recommend reporting the issue upstream at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/-/issues/ |
Created attachment 185958 [details] Logs SUMMARY Under certain circumstances, trying to interact with an unresponsive (Bluetooth) sound device crashes the SystemSettings Sound module, and makes the whole SystemSettings unresponsive. For context: it seems the unresponsive or malfunctioning Bluetooth device caused something fundamental in the sound subsystem to break, and most of desktop applications would end up freezing when accessing the audio devices. Attached is a selection of the system journal messages. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Get in a situation where a BT sound device become unresponsive (not sure how to reproduce this). 2. Go to system settings sound configuration module 3. Try to interact with the device, e.g. by using the sound testing features (test "left" channel). OBSERVED RESULT No sound is reproduced, SystemSettings hangs/freezes. EXPECTED RESULT SystemSettings comes up with some useful error messages.
