Bug Description

Binary package hint: aqualung

Using karmic now.
Aqualung only supports alsa, oss, snd, and jack.
Ubuntu, however, uses pulse audio.
Although theoretically pulseaudio comes with alsa emulation, aqualung doesn't work correctly with it.
Since svn r1073, some old bugs are fixed and PulseAudio support is now added (Patched by me and accepted by upstream). So it now works smoothly with PulseAudio.
So I'd suggest package svn r1073 instead of the old beta.
I've mailed the upstream author and they said there won't be planned new release recently and they suggest using svn version if pulse audio support is needed.

The current package 0.9~beta10+svn1073-0ubuntu1 still freezes at times on my system. The freeze occurs whenever the playlist reaches the end of an album (not necessarily the end of a playlist).

To trigger the bug:
1. Add any two albums to the playlist from the Music Store in "Album" mode
2. Start the last track of the first album playing
3. Skip to near the end of the track and let track continue playing until the end

At the end of the final track, before starting playback of first track of album #2, Aqualung GUI freezes and pegs CPU at 100%.
