Title: [x] [3035] [LINUX] AIMP freezes while trying to open an audio file
Post by: mirw3b on January 21, 2026, 19:24:41: Since few versions of aimp6, on linux, it just freezes. i used to just have to restart aimp after force-closing it, but now i just can't use it at all.
If i try to open an audio file, it stays on "Opening..." and doesn't play the audio file. And if i try to play the audio file again, then aimp just freezes.
I did try to fully uninstall aimp (and deleted all the folders and files of aimp, even in /opt/AIMP and in ~/.config/AIMP) but after reinstalling, i was only able to play an audio file once, after the audio finished, the issue was back.

I would say that the issue has been happening for around 2-3 weeks.
If this can help, i'm using Artix Linux on Wayland & Pipewire and i'm on KDE Plasma.

Yes, even with Alsa it does freeze.

Please, can you share a log file with ALSA output?

Post by: mirw3b on January 23, 2026, 14:49:17: Yes, and i also tried switching to another Alsa output to check and it happens on other Alsa outputs too.

Post by: adem on January 28, 2026, 23:17:46: There is another case with similar symptoms — https://www.aimp.ru/forum/index.php?topic=77085.0 . It seems like A4 skin might cause it. I suggest you to test default Charm skin.

Interesting, it did fix the issue now that i switched back to the Default skin. Guess in the meantime i'll have to stick with that theme until A4 gets fixed.

Post by: mirw3b on February 04, 2026, 19:56:45: Seems like the issue still happens on the theme A4, so the issue is definetly linked to the theme, as the issue doesn't appear when i'm using the default skin
