(Solved) TeamSpeak 5 client refusing to start: SIGSEGV

Furyspark · May 8, 2023, 11:35pm

Ahoy!

I seem to have an issue with the TeamSpeak 5 client on my machine. I downloaded the application via the AUR. However, it doesn’t start. When I try starting it in a terminal, it gives the following output:

Failed to register xdg desktop integration
[0509/012705.349514:WARNING:sandbox_linux.cc(385)] InitializeSandbox() called with multiple threads in process gpu-process.
fish: Job 1, 'teamspeak' terminated by signal SIGSEGV (Address boundary error)

I have also tried downloading a tar from the official server, unpacking that somewhere, and running the TeamSpeak binary in that directory, but that yielded the same result (minus the first line):

[0509/012834.168445:WARNING:sandbox_linux.cc(385)] InitializeSandbox() called with multiple threads in process gpu-process.
fish: Job 1, './TeamSpeak' terminated by signal SIGSEGV (Address boundary error)

I’ve also tried adding some parameters, with no success either: --no-sandbox, --use-gl=swiftshader, --disable-gpu and --disable-software-rasterizer.

I’ve also tried prepending it with this environment variable: MESA_GLSL_CACHE_DISABLE=true teamspeak. That netted me a message as to that variable being deprecated, and using MESA_SHADER_CACHE_DISABLE instead. However, that environment variable also didn’t change this predicament.

Some details about my system:
Distro: Arch Linux
Kernel (uname -r): 6.3.1-arch1-1
CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 7900X 12-Core Processor
GPU: AMD Radeon 6700 XT
Motherboard Model: TUF GAMING X670E-PLUS

Any help would be appreciated, and let me know if you need more information.

Edit: Forgot to mention that I also tried creating a configuration directory: mkdir -p "$HOME/.config/TeamSpeak/Default". However, that directory was apparently already created by then. Removing ~/.config/TeamSpeak in its entirety and recreating it with that command didn’t do anything either. I also checked that the directory and its contents were writable by my user, and that is indeed the case.

SIGSEGV is a Segmentation fault which means a signal for memory access violation like trying to read or write to a memory area that teamspeak doesn’t have access to. Are trying to run the client as the same user who downloaded/unpacked the client? Does it have permission? You can try it as root purely for testing.

Furyspark · May 9, 2023, 12:17am

Yes, I’m sure about that. I don’t think the files being owned by the same user that runs it necessarily matters, though, or I wouldn’t be able to run any of the binaries owned by root in /usr/bin for example, either. The executable bits should be what matters, in most cases.

As for the directory in which it’s unpacked, this is the result of ls -l in that directory (truncated to save space in this post):

And the result of whomai is: tijmen

That said, I refuse to run any graphical application as root. If that would ever be required for an application, I’d shrug and move on.

Gamer92000 · May 9, 2023, 12:22am

I think TeamSpeak also refuses to run as root without some argument.
Other than that, your ls -l output is truncated, right? So there is more in that folder?

Furyspark · May 9, 2023, 12:24am

Yes, there’s more in that directory. I’m not sure if this forum has a tag to hide something by default, so I’ll just post everything, if that will help. Apologies for the (relative) mess:

Edit: Oh, the preformatting’s size is limited by default. That helps.

Gamer92000 · May 9, 2023, 12:29am

That looks good…
For me, it runs fine on Arch (kernel 6.3.1 but updating rn). The only things I can imagine though are either a missing dependency or some DE config thing, but no idea.
Does this crash give you a core dump? So you check what exactly crashes.

Furyspark · May 9, 2023, 1:06am

Aye, I also had a thought that it might be a missing package. But I have no idea what that could be, assuming that’s the case at all.

That bit about the DE did get me thinking that it might have something to do with it. I just rebooted to i3 (was on Plasma), but the results are unfortunately the same.

As for a core dump, I must admit I have never used those before. On the Arch Wiki it says it might contain certain things like cryptographic keys, so I’m not sure how I feel about sending the file itself. I can show the results of coredumpctl info TeamSpeak, though (only the latest entry, at the time of writing):

I am seeing some things about some pulse libraries and radeon libraries in there, so the following information might be relevant:

You made the right call by not posting the coredump. They contain the complete memory section of the application at the time of the crash.
But without you throwing a debugger at that dump (and having TeamSpeaks debug symbols) it’s hard to tell what exactly went wrong. From what it looks like I’d say it’s the last thread with the libtschat_client_lib_export.so.
For the pulse / pipewire stuff, as long as you have pipewire-pulse installed I seriously doubt that this could cause any problem.

Furyspark · May 9, 2023, 1:33am

The pipewire-pulse package is indeed installed. Would it be possible to obtain TeamSpeak’s debug symbols? Not sure, but from what I’ve briefly read about core dumps a bit ago, it seems like that might be something that would require access to the source code.

I am stumped. I couldn’t find anything on SEGV in regards to TeamSpeak anywhere prior to making this post, so I might be the only one with this issue. Please let me know if you need any other information.

Gamer92000 · May 9, 2023, 1:38am

Your best bet will be to wait until @TS.ChrisR gets up and tells you “No one uses Linux anyways” (jk) so he can forward the crashdump to someone internally who can figure out why this happens - assuming you are willing to send the dump to TeamSpeak employees. Segfaults are (usually) always caused by the main application so let’s hope they are interested in finding a solution.

Furyspark · May 9, 2023, 1:43am

Very well. Thanks for all your help. I am willing to send over those files to their developers.

In that case, I will get some shuteye for now, and await for a reply from @TS.ChrisR or another TeamSpeak employee.

Furyspark · May 9, 2023, 10:01pm

@TS.ChrisR Apologies for the bump, but can you give this issue an acknowledgement? I don’t need an answer right away, of course, but I would like to know that it’s not being forgotten.

TS.ChrisR · May 10, 2023, 9:39am

I need that mentioned crashdump. Else i can not say o forward anything to our devs.
You can send it zipped/tarred in a private message. You may need to upload it somewhere.

To ensure you use the latest client i will send you the beta 74 installer for linux.

P.S. we won’t give any support when client was installed from any 3rd party instance/tool.
Only our installers from the website or included updates we will investigate.

Furyspark · May 10, 2023, 12:03pm

Just to keep this topic up to date, I have sent the core dump over by now, and am currently waiting for a response from TeamSpeak’s development team. I will update this topic once I get a response, in the hopes of informing people on what to do, in case I’m not the only one with this problem now or in the future.

But for now, I think all I can do is play the waiting game.

TS.ChrisR · May 10, 2023, 12:10pm

You would get the response here

TS.ChrisR · May 12, 2023, 2:19pm

Our dev tried to look at the crash dump but could not find anything useful in there.

Maybe another crash dump would show something else?

Furyspark · May 12, 2023, 3:40pm

I just sent a fresh core dump. I can’t imagine wanting to spend too much resources on something that only 1 person seems to be suffering from, so I really hope this one will net some answers.

I’m really baffled by this issue. Especially considering everything else seems to work just fine on this system, from games to web browsers and applications like Krita and Blender. I also haven’t encountered this with any other Chromium-based applications.

Anyway, I’ll continue the waiting game for now. Thanks for your patience with this strange issue so far, Chris.

Almost a year later, and I had a segmentation fault with another Electron-based application. This time, I actually found some helpful information on the Arch Linux forum in regards to this here.

I pasted the code from the last message (#11) in a file, made it executable, and ran it. After that, the other application worked, and I since I was reminded to TeamSpeak, I tried it again, and it also worked now.

No guarantee that the two are related, since it was about 10 months ago since I last tried TeamSpeak. But considering the similarities, I’m just going to assume the issues were resolved simultaneously.

I am having this exact problem currently. I am unable to use either teamspeak3 or teamspeak5. When running teamspeak with “sudo -u USER teamspeak”, it does run, but audio does not work.
I use Plasma KDE (on wayland), and pipewire for audio.
Unfortunately, the above mentioned script did not fix the issue for me.
I have been searching everywhere for a few days now and I am getting really demoralized.
Any idea on how I could fix this?

Edit: I just tried pulseaudio instead of pipewire, and teamspeak springs to life. I did have pipewire-pulse installed, so what could be the issue here?

Edit 2: I figured it out! Turns out when running pipewire, teamspeak assumes that all audio nodes have a device.description, and a node.description. My custom sinks did not have those. screams internally
