Using the latest svn sources, Frets on Fire does not run. Running ./FretsOnFire.py -v produces the following output:

...
(D) Initializing audio.
Fatal Python error: (pygame parachute) Segmentation Fault
Aborted

The exact line of code that causes this crash is the following in Audio.py:

pygame.mixer.init(frequency, bits, stereo and 2 or 1, bufferSize)

which is being called by GameEngine.py with the following arguments:

freq: 44100
-bits: -16
stereo: True
bufferSize: 2048

This same bug is known to affect OSX as well.

    A workaround for this issue has already been made for OS X. I'll need to verify that the same workaround works on other platforms as well.
