Description: PulseAudio sound server
 PulseAudio, previously known as Polypaudio, is a sound server for POSIX and
 WIN32 systems. It is a drop in replacement for the ESD sound server with
 much better latency, mixing/re-sampling quality and overall architecture.
 .
 These are some of PulseAudio's features:
 .
   * High quality software mixing of multiple audio streams with support for
     more than one sink/source. May be used to combine multiple sound cards
     into one (with sample rate adjustment).
 .
   * Wide range of supported client libraries. ESD, ALSA, oss, libao and
     GStreamer client applications are supported as-is. Native PulseAudio
     plug-ins are also available for xmms and mplayer.
 .
   * Good low latency behaviour and very accurate latency measurement for
     playback and recording. Ability to fully synchronize multiple playback
     streams.
 .
   * Network transparency, allowing an application to play back or record
     audio on a different machine than the one it is running on.
 .
   * Extensible plug-in architecture with plug-ins for jackd, multicast-rtp
     lirc and avahi, just to name a few.
 .
 This package contains the daemon and basic module set.

The error Assertion 'o' failed at pulse/operation.c:133, function pa_operation_get_state(). Aborting. may be caused by missing plugins. Not all of them are optional. Is the package gstreamer1.0-autogain-pulseeffects installed?

The situation is that when I click the pulseeffects from the application launcher it notify me as

Pulseeffects was Updated with option to reset the settings ( yes/No) but nothing happens ,
Any idea to diagnose the issue ??

Assertion 'o' failed at pulse/operation.c:133, function pa_operation_get_state(). Aborting.

If i do run pulseeffects --gapplication-service it immediately shows The pop up notification as Pulseeffects was Updated ....... with option yes/no to reset . than it halts

Few information ( if it helps )

I have done as said to reset PulseEffects with dconf reset........... but no change to the issue But one thing i noticed when i checked pulseeffects with my one more system ( same distribution installed )

screenshot_20180928_021558

The issue is even after removing the pulseeffects package and after reboot My system still shows PulseEffescts ( app ) & ( mic) as device suitable for all these categories

While i have checked in my other system if i do uninstall the package this list never shows the PulseEffects as available device

I think If somehow it can be removed from the system than the issue can be resolved

@wwmm kinda weird experience but issue resolved .. when i connected my USB sound card just few moments ago and i clicked the PulseEffects from menu and suddenly it worked

look at this

What keeps PulseEffects from not loading it's GUI and showing those errors !!!!!

It seems PE is not being able to load its sinks in your system. Sometime ago a user had a similar problem but it is not clear what could cause this. Here PE never fails to load these sinks. Are you able to install PE using flatpak? Instructions here Package-Repositories. This way we could see if it is a problem with the package.

neve used it... (embarassed...) so, same problem occurs. Since Mint 19 is strictly derived from Ubuntu 18.04, if we try to solve this problem on Mint 19, there is 99% of chance that can be solved on Ubuntu 18.04....

Note: the locale prob is that i have the interface set to US but everything else (time, date etc.) in EU/Italian mode. But i think this is not a problem...

Hummm... Did you try dconf reset -f /com/github/wwmm/pulseeffects/?

@Tetractys
Copy link

after the reset it works. great!
So, flatpak installation and the dconf reset works. Hoping, however, you will find the problem in the PPA installation mode. In the PPA installation the reset request pops up with the Yes/No available answers when you try to start pulseeffects but probably the dconf does not perform the correct action to the relative key.
Thank you very much!

When resetting through dconf the popup will be shown. Only when resetting thought pulseeffects they are not shown.

Understood.
Anyway i would try to take a look precisely in that procedure (if you accept that suggestion...) :)

My sincere compliments to your work. As an audiophile (or close to that), I had been waiting for some time for some willing hero to take care of this aspect ;)

I don't feel like reseting any settings since I spent some creating an equalizer preset for my cheap headphones that made them sound really good.

EDIT: The preset did not get removed by using the dconf command posted further up.

Is this problem with the dark theme reproducible? Here I can switch the dark mode on and off without problems. But I do not have the GTK warnings that you have.

after the reset it works. great!
So, flatpak installation and the dconf reset works.

I think it does not depend on installation method, but depends on some other random factors, the phase of the moon for example.

So I also have the same problem under both Ubuntu 18.04 and 18.10, also with both versions from the ppa and flathub. I tried the dconf-reset, but that wouldn't solve it either.

The debug from the ppa version read:

It would be good to see the core dump of this crash. Run the command coredumpctl list. This should show an output like this:

TIME                            PID   UID   GID SIG COREFILE  EXE
Sat 2018-10-13 17:58:21 -03   16527  1000  1000  11 present   /usr/bin/nautilus

Once you have the PID of the core dump generated by PE run the command coredumpctl info pid_value. Put the lines below Stack trace of thread here

The output (called "Stack trace of thread 2" for some reason) reads

We have to make this core dump useful. @mikhailnov is there a package with debug symbol on ubuntu?

In case there isn't you would have to try to compile the source code @Blahpunkt

Yes, but they are not in the repository. You have to download and install them by yourself.

This helps. Now I know where to look. The crash starts when the function get_sink_info is called. I will take a look. But it is odd. This function is always called when PE starts. It makes no sense that a few people are having segfaults with it and others don't =/

Commended in #363 but this seems more like the issues I'm having. Installed with the debug symbols and get this output

I made a few changes in PE 4.4.0 that should help with the kind of segfault reported in this issue. But your segfault has a different source @betterphp. It seems it is happening when a conversion from number to string is made (the line with to_string). Honestly I do not see how this is even possible. std::string should throw an exception when a bad input is given.

Oh weird, I'll make a new issue for my thing then - unfortunately my C++ is a bit too rusty to help out :(

Is this still a problem in 4.4.0? Not that it fixes Pulseaudio problems... But it has a workaround

I build 4.4.0 from source and it works! Thank you for all the work and looking into it so thoroughly!

Also it might be good to know that flathub still seems to distribute v4.3.8
