Crash when opening video/audio files #426

Summary

Aegisub instantly crashes when opening video/audio files

Which version and OS are you using?

Aegisub 9521-master-6996f34e4
manually compiled on Ubuntu 24.04 (Gnome, Xorg)

How to reproduce the bug?

Happens on about every 5th to 15th media opening. Usually crashes twice in a row when Aegisub is reopened with attempting to load the same media within a couple of seconds after the crash
The issue occurs rather independant of audio/video codecs. Most tested are mp4 (MPEG-4 AAC + H.264 (Main Profile)), opus, webm (Vorbis + VP8)

What's the actual bug behavior?

Instant Aegisub crash, automatic script resolution adjustment happens before though (I know bc I enabled autosave for every change made)

What should happen instead?

Correctly loading the audio/video

Logs and/or screenshots

journalctl logs the following error message when the crashes occur:

gnome-shell[3089]: Can't update stage views actor unnamed [MetaWindowActorX11] is on because it needs an allocation.

coredump files can be provided if needed
