Media nodes deletion is triggered by the media server when refcount is
zero. It sends a message to the media node port, which then asks the
media roster to delete the media node.
When quitting the media_addon server, there could still be references
to nodes hosted by the addon server: the roster looper could still try
to delete media nodes whereas the addons are already unloaded.
I tried to solve this problem in 35133 by releasing all references to
have the media nodes deleted (multiaudio settings are then saved
correctly). I noticed the Media preferences keep references on some
nodes.
Is there a better way ?
Bye,
Jérôme
