Bug Description

I can't reproduce this now connected or disconnected from the shoutcast server, but I thought I would submit this anyway since I have an error string.

I was doing my live show just now, and I decided to turn off BPM detection thinking I could let some load off my CPU that way. (It was having a pretty hard time with mixxx.) Well, a second or so later, I was greeted with a small dialog informing me that the connection to the audio device was lost or something to that effect. Needless to say, my show ended there. :)

Here's what I found in the console:

Expression 'r' failed in 'src/hostapi/alsa/pa_linux_alsa.c', line: 1341
Expression 'PaAlsaStreamComponent_FinishConfigure( &self->playback, hwParamsPlayback, outParams, self->primeBuffers, realSr, outputLatency )' failed in 'src/hostapi/alsa/pa_linux_alsa.c', line: 1881
Expression 'PaAlsaStream_Configure( stream, inputParameters, outputParameters, sampleRate, framesPerBuffer, &inputLatency, &outputLatency, &hostBufferSizeMode )' failed in 'src/hostapi/alsa/pa_linux_alsa.c', line: 1986
Debug: [Main]: Error opening stream: Unanticipated host error

I think this is because changing anything in preferences disconnects and reconnects the audio device.

Yep, the prefs always reinitialize the audio devices when you hit "ok". Fixed in my gsoc branch.
