SUMMARY


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install the program
2. Launch Discord or Steam
3. Join a voice channel in Discord or Launch SteamVR

OBSERVED RESULT
Discord freezes, SteamVR encounters an error and doesn't work anymore.

EXPECTED RESULT
No crashes or freezes

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 10 (Latest update as of 06/14/2020)

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I am 100% sure it was this program since uninstalling it immediately fixed all my computers bugs. Somehow it is interfering a ton!

Same issue here, though not quite as extreme (I don't use SteamVR). The issue only happens with discord for me, and it isn't instant. After about 5-10 minutes being in a voice call, discord will crash. Definitely caused by kdeconnect, because uninstalling it fixes the issue.

I'm on archlinux 5.7.5, using kdeconnect 1.4.0.
I'd be happy to provide any other information needed to help resolve this bug.

Does disabling the 'Multimedia control receiver' plugin in the KDE Connect settings help?

I am unable to reproduce this issue. If you can help us reproduce this issue with the latest build from https://binary-factory.kde.org/job/kdeconnect-kde_Nightly_win64/ , I can try to fix it.

Somewhere between then and now the bug has been squashed since I cannot reproduce the issue anymore.
