[Pkg-games-ubuntu] [Bug 442535] Re: wesnoth no sound, high cpu usage, can't quit without freezing the application

[Don Atkinson]

I'm adding info to my previous post in an effort to be more helpful- :)
Rebooting my 9.10 Beta, I was able to make it to the sound preferences
in Wesnoth (music, turn bell, sound effects & interface sounds), turning
them all off.  With no sound enabled at all, I was able to play an
entire scenario of Wesnoth, and quit the game without a problem.  I was
running Jaunty 9.04 previously with no issues with Wesnoth, so can I
assume there was a change in the audio software?   I just tried another
scenario with all the sound preferences enabled- all is well for a few
minutes, and then CPU usage spikes to 100% and stays there.  Any effort
to click off the sound again or quit the game is not possible.  Wesnoth
freezes up tight.  I hope this helps, I'm still poking around myself.
:)

Status in “wesnoth” package in Ubuntu: Invalid

Bug description:
Binary package hint: wesnoth

I hear no music or sound, wesnoth freezes after trying to close the game by pressing button "quit". Removing settings folder and starting the application fresh doesn't help:
rm -r .wesnoth1.6/

It also freezes after trying to untick all sound options in sound preferences (buttons sound, music, unit sound, something else...)

At all time it attempts to use 100% cpu
