v0.4.0: Disappearing menubar icon #662

Open haabe opened 1 year ago

haabe commented 1 year ago

Description of the bug Sometimes the BackgroundMusic icon disappears from my menubar, which makes me believe it has crashed. When I launch BackgroundMusic again, the icon is restored - but the audio is distorted. My guess is that there are now multiple BM instances running, fighting to control the sound output.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Make the BM icon disappear (sorry, I have no idea what triggers this to happen)
  2. Launch BM again
  3. Play some audio that now probably will be distorted

Debug logs I didn't enable debugging

Other info Totally unrelated - but sometimes the "about" box won't open when I chose BM > Preferences > About BM
