After recent updates from last week (not to audacious, but other dependencies) audacious is hanging for about 20 seconds on startup, and freezes when skipping ahead to the next track. While of dubious utility, strace gives the following on startup at the point where audacious hangs: poll([{fd=8, events=POLLIN|POLLOUT}], 1, -1) = 1 ([{fd=8, revents=POLLOUT}]) sendmsg(8, {msg_name(0)=NULL, msg_iov(2)=[{"l\1\0\1\0\0\0\0\1\0\0\0n\0\0\0\1\1o\0\25\0\0\0/org/fre"..., 128}, {"", 0}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, MSG_NOSIGNAL) = 128 poll([{fd=8, events=POLLIN}], 1, 25000) = 1 ([{fd=8, revents=POLLIN}]) recvmsg(8, {msg_name(0)=NULL, msg_iov(1)=[{"l\2\1\1\n\0\0\0\1\0\0\0=\0\0\0\6\1s\0\5\0\0\0:1.64\0\0\0"..., 2048}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=MSG_CMSG_CLOEXEC}, MSG_CMSG_CLOEXEC) = 260 recvmsg(8, 0x7fff9a80d840, MSG_CMSG_CLOEXEC) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable) fstat(8, {st_mode=S_IFSOCK|0777, st_size=0, ...}) = 0 fcntl(8, F_GETFL) = 0x802 (flags O_RDWR|O_NONBLOCK) sendmsg(8, {msg_name(0)=NULL, msg_iov(2)=[{"l\1\1\1n\0\0\0\2\0\0\0\177\0\0\0\1\1o\0\25\0\0\0/org/fre"..., 144}, {"i\0\0\0type='signal',sender='org.at"..., 110}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, MSG_NOSIGNAL) = 254 sendmsg(8, {msg_name(0)=NULL, msg_iov(2)=[{"l\1\1\1\244\0\0\0\3\0\0\0\177\0\0\0\1\1o\0\25\0\0\0/org/fre"..., 144}, {"\237\0\0\0type='signal',sender='org.fr"..., 164}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, MSG_NOSIGNAL) = 308 sendmsg(8, {msg_name(0)=NULL, msg_iov(2)=[{"l\1\0\1\31\0\0\0\4\0\0\0\177\0\0\0\1\1o\0\25\0\0\0/org/fre"..., 144}, {"\24\0\0\0org.atheme.audacious\0", 25}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, MSG_NOSIGNAL) = 169 sendmsg(8, {msg_name(0)=NULL, msg_iov(2)=[{"l\1\0\1\0\0\0\0\5\0\0\0p\0\0\0\1\1o\0\25\0\0\0/org/ath"..., 128}, {"", 0}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, MSG_NOSIGNAL) = 128 poll([{fd=8, events=POLLIN}], 1, 25000) = 1 ([{fd=8, revents=POLLIN}]) recvmsg(8, {msg_name(0)=NULL, msg_iov(1)=[{"l\2\1\1\0\0\0\0\3\0\0\0005\0\0\0\6\1s\0\5\0\0\0:1.64\0\0\0"..., 2048}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=MSG_CMSG_CLOEXEC}, MSG_CMSG_CLOEXEC) = 233 recvmsg(8, 0x7fff9a80d6a0, MSG_CMSG_CLOEXEC) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable) poll([{fd=8, events=POLLIN}], 1, 25000 and the following when it freezes: poll([{fd=6, events=POLLIN}, {fd=5, events=POLLIN}, {fd=10, events=POLLIN}, {fd=8, events=POLLIN}], 4, 2) = 0 (Timeout) read(5, 0x66b0a4, 4096) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable) poll([{fd=6, events=POLLIN}, {fd=5, events=POLLIN}, {fd=10, events=POLLIN}, {fd=8, events=POLLIN}], 4, 25) = 1 ([{fd=5, revents=POLLIN}]) read(5, "\5\1U\r>\341q\0E\1\0\0\26\0\300\3\0\0\0\0\27\0039\2v\0d\0\20\1\1\0", 4096) = 32 read(5, 0x66b0a4, 4096) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable) poll([{fd=5, events=POLLIN|POLLOUT}], 1, -1) = 1 ([{fd=5, revents=POLLOUT}]) writev(5, [{"$\30\1\0&\2\2\0E\1\0\0", 12}, {NULL, 0}, {"", 0}], 3) = 12 poll([{fd=5, events=POLLIN}], 1, -1) = 1 ([{fd=5, revents=POLLIN}]) read(5, "\1\1W\r\0\0\0\0E\1\0\0\274.\241\0\27\0039\2\27\0039\2\20\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 4096) = 32 read(5, 0x66b0a4, 4096) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable) poll([{fd=5, events=POLLIN|POLLOUT}], 1, -1) = 1 ([{fd=5, revents=POLLOUT}]) writev(5, [{"&\30\2\0\274.\241\0", 8}, {NULL, 0}, {"", 0}], 3) = 8 poll([{fd=5, events=POLLIN}], 1, -1) = 1 ([{fd=5, revents=POLLIN}]) read(5, "\1\1X\r\0\0\0\0E\1\0\0\275.\241\0\27\0039\2v\0d\0\20\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 4096) = 32 read(5, 0x66b0a4, 4096) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable) poll([{fd=5, events=POLLIN|POLLOUT}], 1, -1) = 1 ([{fd=5, revents=POLLOUT}]) writev(5, [{"&\30\2\0\275.\241\0", 8}, {NULL, 0}, {"", 0}], 3) = 8 poll([{fd=5, events=POLLIN}], 1, -1) = 1 ([{fd=5, revents=POLLIN}]) read(5, "\1\1Y\r\0\0\0\0E\1\0\0\26\0\300\3\27\0039\2v\0d\0\20\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 4096) = 32 read(5, 0x66b0a4, 4096) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable) poll([{fd=5, events=POLLIN|POLLOUT}], 1, -1) = 1 ([{fd=5, revents=POLLOUT}]) writev(5, [{"&\30\2\0\26\0\300\3", 8}, {NULL, 0}, {"", 0}], 3) = 8 poll([{fd=5, events=POLLIN}], 1, -1) = 1 ([{fd=5, revents=POLLIN}]) read(5, "\1\1Z\r\0\0\0\0E\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\27\0039\2v\0d\0\20\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 4096) = 32 read(5, 0x66b0a4, 4096) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable) poll([{fd=5, events=POLLIN|POLLOUT}], 1, -1) = 1 ([{fd=5, revents=POLLOUT}]) writev(5, [{"%\30\1\0", 4}, {NULL, 0}, {"", 0}], 3) = 4 read(5, 0x66b0a4, 4096) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable) futex(0x7f697e62b9e0, FUTEX_WAIT, 5431, NULL It isn't the same track(s), so I doubt it's corrupted files.

It's inconsistent) 3. crushing disappointment Actual Results: audacious freezes and has to be forcibly killed in its favorite spot in the backyard.

FYI: I am seeing what is probably the same bug. I don't have a 20 second pause when starting audacious, but once a track is stopped for some reason (pressing STOP, closing the player, skipping to another track), the whole thing freezes for me as well. The tracks were MP3, BTW (in case it's a bug in the MP3 decoder), haven't checked if it happens with other types as well. Oh yes, I am on x86_64 too.
Same problem here. While compiling adacious-plugins there was a comment that I might need to enable a hang-up workaround in the ALSA plugin. However I have no idea how I would do this and I have not found any additional information on this.
Bugs to be filed *upstream*. Please actually read the notices that I put on ebuilds for you, you go into Preferences, select the ALSA output plugin and enable the hang-up workaround there. Thank you.
d'oh. You are correct: the workaround fixes it. Sorry for being inconsiderate.
