I hope this is a reasonable place to post my problem. I'm running a fully-updated Kubuntu system installed from the Gutsy Gibbon beta. I recently installed soundKonverter and am unable to switch the CD ripping back end from "KDE audio CD protocol" to "cdparanoia". If I go to Settings->Configure soundKonverter... and switch to the Backends tab, I can set the pull-down for CD Ripper to cdparanoia. It seems to switch, but if I press "ok" or "apply" and then "ok", then re-open the configuration window, it has reverted to the KDE audio CD protocol.
Inspecting ~/.kde/share/apps/soundkonverter/profiles.xml reveals several settings, but none that seem to relate to the CD Ripper back end setting.
If I run from the command line, I get the following output:
The last message looks like it might be significant.
The main reason I'm concerned is that soundKonverter frequently crashes for me. Every other CD I rip (or so), I find it frozen at the end of the ripping phase for a track. If I hit "Stop immediately," it immediately crashes out. I was hoping that switching to cdparanoia would help with this.
Any assistance would be appreciated. If this is the wrong place to ask about this, I apologize and would appreciate a pointer to the right place. I'm asking here first rather than on the soundKonverter page because I suspect this may be a Kubuntu-specific problem.
