Symptoms: Run processes like mplayer via start-process from
inside emacs, e.g. playing an mp3 file ---
output comes to a stop after a fixed length of time -- typically
about a minute. Any form of kbd activity --- even the first key
in a multi-key sequence -- gets things unwedged i.e. the mp3
stream continues to play.
Can you run Emacs under GDB and stop it at various times
to see where it is waiting? Make a backtrace each time.
If you see a pattern in the backtraces, looking one way
while the subprocess is still going, and looking a different way
when it has stopped, that will give us a clue to start from.
Does anyone else observe this problem?
