Bug Description
I keep on receiving bug reports about Machines vs. Machines being crashy on Ubuntu Phones and I tracked it down to the SoundEffect item. When playing without sound effects enabled, the game seems very stable.
To get to the bottom of this I created an app that simulates a bit how a game works with sound effects. It's a bit more aggressive than Machines-
So far I've seen crashes in creating SoundEffects items as well as removing them from the scene.
Please find the example here: lp:~mzanetti/+junk/soundcrasher
You should be able to run it on any vivid powered device by just opening the .pro file in QtCreator and hit the play button. The logs vary a lot between crashes. Sometimes I get some PulseAudio messages, sometimes it just crashes without any. Probably some raciness. Anyhow, this example app should give the system a hard time and reveal most of the crashes eventually.
