Describe the Bug
Randomly when starting up Sunshine, it will segfault while reading the configuration file. I've observed this issue only occurs on a second+ startup of Sunshine after a machine reboot. Meaning that Sunshine first startup after a fresh reboot will never cause this to occur.
Expected Behavior
Sunshine should start up every time.
Additional Context
This has been occurring since before 0.21.0 (this was the first version I ever used). This has occurred across multiple versions of my OS (Ubuntu 22.10, Ubuntu 23.04, Ubuntu 23.10 and now Ubuntu 24.04). This has occurred across multiple versions of graphic drivers.
No configuration changes occur in between a failing startup and a successful startup.
The issue occurs randomly, but relatively rarely. 3 out of 10 startups will segfault.
A retry of the startup will almost always work immediately. Only a handful of times has the startup segfault persisted a second time consecutively.

I think the config file is locked by the other process and when you kill it, it doesn't release immediately?
@ReenigneArcher I've had it occur even with a long break between killing the original process and starting a new instance. I don't do it programatically, I do it manually.
If I do end up killing the original process, I usually do so from the terminal with kill -9 or ctrl+C from the running window.
I.e. I don't think the previous process still has any hooks that could cause this when I usually restart. I'll keep that in mind in my repros though.
Edit: sorry if it's a bit confusing; what I'm trying to say effectively is that I kill the process in such a way that it shouldn't still have the file locked regardless, and I usually have enough of a delta time between killing the old one and starting the new one that it doesn't really make sense to me.
@cgutman here you go, I hope I did this correctly, I've never used gdb before:
