499612 - Memory leak in libsydneyaudio when playing audio using audio/video elements

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 506061

(Core :: Audio/Video, defect)

Description

[cajbir (:cajbir)]

See Annodex trac ticket 487:

https://trac.annodex.net/ticket/487

libsydneyaudio's alsa backend allocates memory for the handle in sa_stream_create_pcm:

    /*
    * Allocate the instance and required resources. */ 
    if ((s = malloc(sizeof(sa_stream_t))) == NULL) {
        return SA_ERROR_OOM;
    }

It does not free this anywhere.
