Re: Crash on pause

Post by LostProgrammer »

I signed up specifically for this thread. I have had terrible locks on sleep with DSound for several months. It would lock at least every third time sleep hit, many times it was every time sleep hit. I tried the test build 6.1.23-145326 and have made it through three consecutive sleep trips.

That said, I have only just changed my sleep to be 15 minutes so I could ram through some quick tests. I am not convinced my monitor does not contribute to this as it has its own issues. I should know within the next day or so if the newest build did the job.

@fth0, thank you for your post and @ueli, thank you for the thread!

I'm happy to report that, after more than a week having 2 paused guests on my host, nothing has happened. Everything appears rocksolid.
Many thanks to you developers for this achievement!

Thanks for reporting back! The current test builds have additional audio fixes, BTW. :)
