ScratchGPIO7 is crashing on latest Raspberry Pi

[jeffreyschw]

Here are the repro steps:
Get the latest NOOBS installer and choose the default (I installed on 3/21/2015)
Install ScratchGPIO 7 (which is awesome when it works)
Build the following script:

• when Sprite1 clicked
• broadcast "pin7high"
• play sound "meow"
  Click on the sprite
  • At this point Scratch disappears *

Watching Scratch under gdb shows that it is failing with a signal SIGIO and exited
Watching the Python script under gdb shows the process tearing down... with no obvious hints

I may look a bit deeper into this, but I wanted to file this issue now.

I forgot to mention... this is a Raspberry Pi B+ and Scratch is v 1.4 (14-Jan-15)

See here for Scratch sound issues - I believe that this is the underlying problem and not really a ScratchGPIO isssue http://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=77&t=70204&sid=c8306bf67bf39cc3924265e5418b3847

Yes, if you take the sound block out does it still crash?

Sorry for the delay - and thanks for the quick replies. No I did not mean to close it. We are able to interact with Scratch with Scounds and independently with Broadcast's, but not together. I am brand new to the interaction of the two models, but there is definitely a chain effect of what is crashing. From what I can see Scratch dies, because the python script dies. Are their other players involved that I can attached and catch the fault?
