Soundconverter Freezes

[fisherm]

This issue just popped up one day, and I can't think of anything that I upgraded or changed. It work one day, and then it didn't. I've done a fresh install of 10.04, and even switched to Linux Mint 9 (10.04 based). Originally, I had a pretty vanilla system with ubuntu-restricted-extras installed along with soundconverter...and that worked fine, until it didn't. It happens with any type of original file, or destination file.

The process...I open soundconverter, open a file, it loads into the queue fine, then when I press "Convert" soundconverter goes into "freeze mode"...the window grays out, and it just sits...indefinitely. Here's the output from the terminal running "soundconverter -d" for debugging.

XXX@XXX ~ $ soundconverter -d
