Please do for the reasons mentioned below. Also these are considered
standard of a good bug report.

I can't even reproduct it on unstable.
I only get the decnet warning and then cmus starts up with about 5
seconds delay on the first start and from then on instantly.

My steps to reproduce in all 3 Debian versions:
1. Install a fresh VM from Netinst in VirtualBox
2. Accept the defaults for Desktop and additionally select SSH Server
3. Install cmus as root
4. Change back to a normal user
5. run cmus
6. <on jessie and wheezy: playing some test music>
7. quit it again

Thanks thats another thing i will test.

Can you maybe give us a list of installed packages?

I will assume that these are desktop machines which where used for some
time before upgrading. Unless you can assure me these are fresh installs
before updates, we can only assume that there are other packages
installed which interfere.

I am currently upgrading my fresh debian 8 vm fron yesterday to debian
unstable. I will write back when its done and I got to test that.

Also does it just hang or will cmus start after some time?
