over and over in console

turning off speaker and back on would produce same results. Unable to get sound to work in that session again.

See #298, looks like gstreamer has some serious problems on win32..

Maybe you were lucky, my testing is much much worse: as soon as I stop the sound, all the windows and the applet stop responding, the UI thread is blocked as per #298.
Also it looks to me like this has nothing to do with wavpack and happens with every other codec on win32, right? (please confirm this is isn't a regression caused by recent changes done to accomodate #298 - not that we can easily undo them to get a major advantage, it's still a datapoint)

On Linux, you need r3031 to restart sound, but there it works reliably.

Trying #299 first might be a good way forward.

r3032 removes the ability to turn the speaker on or off for win32 hosts since it cannot be made to work reliably with "current" available gstreamer builds, will follow up in #299 or #300.

Please test an close.

Restored the ability to start/stop sound in r3095 - seems to work again since r3092 fixed the signal stuff.

Err, just happened again - but I swear it was working OK when I committed r3095!
(looks like I'll have to undo the undo...)

This one is so hit and miss that I am not at all sure that I have found the cause, or the solution.

See the r3100 commit message for the latest attempts at allowing sound and ^C to coexist on win32.

Seems to work swimmingly now. Closing.
