Audacious player "cut" action freezes Debian KDE Plasma for 20 seconds (can reproduce)

Help
1

On Debian 12 with KDE and Audacious audio player (all latest stable), when I am playing an audio track in Audacious playlist and then cut this track and several more tracks (mouse right click or Ctrl+X), the UI and KDE taskbar freeze for maybe 20 seconds+.

Around the time of the incident are following lines in a “sudo journalctl -xe” output, Next time i tried to do it again, I have seen no lines, so following ones may not be related to issue:

Can’t reproduce it on a debian. But um…you’re not on "the latest ".

Thank you, You may not have exact same desktop as me based on your and mine “inxi” output, also you may have Audacious from a different repository. Checking “apt info audacious” and “apt upgrade audacious” i can see:

Version: 4.2-1
APT-Sources: http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm/main amd64 Packages
audacious is already the newest version (4.2-1).

Yes, I know. Guess if you want newer, you’ll have to have a look at your sources. Still, can’t reproduce that issue. Try a flatpak and see what gives maybe. Believe audacious’ already at 4.4-ish.
