Hi,
when loading the sounddevice module after the visual or event module from psychopy (no problem with core) I get an error message when finishing or quitting the script (sys.exit()):
*** Error in `python’: free(): invalid pointer: 0x00007fc9289b8540 ***

…
minimal example causing the error:
from psychopy import event
import sounddevice
this is fine:
import sounddevice
from psychopy import event
The workaround for now is just to import sounddevice before the psychopy modules.
I’m running debian unstable with psychopy ‘1.83.04’
If anybody has a clue about it, would be nice to know any ideas to solve this.
best wishes
Piotr
