Can you verify that hypothesis by adding back the config file(s), without any database files, restarting pulseaudio and trying again? If it crashes, please show us the exact contents of the config file(s) and the pulseaudio output. My hypothesis is that it was the database files in ~/.config/pulse/ that caused the crash, in which case adding config files should not matter. > Try this: > > 1. start JACK1 > 2. pulseaudio -L module-jack-source -L module-jack-sink > 3. open icecat and mess around with the seekbar How about you try it first? Until my hypothesis is disproven, I would prefer not to spend more time on this. Thanks, Mark
