6 years ago It seems to be. I still can't reproduce it but I will take a look at the code and see if there is anything that could explain why some people are having this problem

6 years ago @Dodjob do you have Use Default turned on in PE settings menu or is it disabled?
wwmm
commented
6 years ago After a second look at your logs I think that the info I talked in the pots above is irrelevant. You are having the crash when PE tries to load its sinks. This stage comes in the first initialization steps and has nothing to do with custom device selection.
It seems that PE is not being capable to load a null sink in your system. Strange.

6 years ago Yeap, I would love to change this, but PulseEffect doesnt start ^^ I tried to start it on another user on the same computer... and .. it works.. which means.. it's something config related somewhere. I tried to remove "config/pulse" without succes. That maybe help tho :)
wwmm
commented
6 years ago You are right. In your case you would not be able to see the window XD
Wait... You can not remove config/pulse?!?! What is the output of ls -l ~/.config/pulse/ It seems you have permission problems in your folder

6 years ago I found a work-around: I installed the Flathub package! But possibly more interesting, it is version 4.2.8 which is a little behind on the developments.
Of course, I would rather use the PPA version (Flathub is great for proprietary blobs) but it's a nice thing to compare side by side.

6 years ago @wwmm I can remove it ^^ it's just that it doesnt make my beloved pulseeffects working again :( *do you have any kind of files generated in the user space? like a config file I evtl. could delete? Removing my only json (yes pretty weak) doesn't solve anything :)

6 years ago Try to run dconf reset -f /com/github/wwmm/pulseeffects/. This will reset PE settings

6 years ago OMG.. It's back <3 Lot's of thanks.. Aaah really :D *big fan here ;)
Eonfge
commented
6 years ago Yep, confirmed here to. Had to wait a second before I could try it, but after rebooting the settings are preserved and the pulse audio still starts. Now all that's left is to roll out a patch that resets the settings if PulseEffects crashes.

6 years ago No, fix should be deployed in some way. Never assume that all users read the github page. @wwmm Ideas?
wwmm
commented
6 years ago It is good to know this helps but at this moment it is not clear why it fixed the problem. I don't think it is possible to reset PE in this kind of crash. Maybe we should consider an automatic reset after each upgrade. It is not the first time a reset fixes issues that a few users have but I and other users don't. I wonder if it is possible that dconf database gets corrupted after an upgrade

6 years ago Hey. I have no idea if this is possible. but as soon as there is no special permission to run your command. I think just add somehow a little batch at first start after update (the program let somehow a trace of used version when it shut down and check if it is the same when it starts) would do the trick. Again, mega N00B here and mostly very fran of your program.. because I used qpaeq for years and always was wondering why somethnig like Viperfx wasn't ported to linux. Sorry for the roman and slight OT but you made somone really happy with your work. ;)
wwmm
commented
6 years ago No problems :-)
Doing an automatic reset after each upgrade or downgrade is easy.If you take a look at PE settings menu you will see we have a reset button. All that has to be done is calling the reset function we already have when the version string changes. And as most of PE settings are saved to the presets file this automatic reset will not be annoying to the users. I am just not sure if it is the better course of action. But without being able to reproduce the issue I don't have a better idea

6 years ago I remember I saw ~/.gconf or ~/.dbus beloning to root instead of user for multiple time. No idea why it happend so.

6 years ago If it's not possible to build in some try{}catch{} on the top level of the application, then best to just pre-emptively reset.
wwmm
commented
6 years ago A try/catch could only be done if I knew where the problem was and what was causing it. But without being able to reproduce the issue this is impossible.
Eonfge
commented
6 years ago I must confess, my knowledge on Python is almost none, but I was thinking of starting and ending the entire application in one big try/catch(...), where the last possible catch quickly clears settings before throwing the error. This way, users can restart the app without to much loss. Done such a thing in the past where the last catch() just mails the support desk.
wwmm
commented
6 years ago PulseEffects 4 is written in C++. PE 3 that was in Python. The assert that causes the abort happens deep inside Pulseaudio that is written in C. I have my doubts that a C++ try/catch will magically handle C assertion failures. We probably would need to know what caused this Pulseaudio assertion to fail as well as which operation invoked it.
wwmm
commented
6 years ago And now that PE has 20000 lines of code I doubt it would be easy to handle this with only 1 try/catch
