Stuttering on copy

[lijamez]

Describe the bug When something is copied, there is a stutter on the desktop which freezes whatever is being displayed for around 0.1 seconds (common) up to 1 second (rare). The stuttering occurs regardless of the content I have copied. I have tested copying text, files/folders, and images.

Stutters do not occur when Pano is running in Incognito mode.

Expected behavior Stutters should not occur.

Screenshots Screenshots would not demonstrate the problem.

To Reproduce

• GNOME Shell version: 42
• Distro: Fedora 36
• Steps to reproduce, if applicable:

1. Put something that moves on the screen (e.g. play a video). Sometimes I am able to freeze the mouse too, but not always.
2. Copy something with Ctrl+C
3. Content on screen freezes for up to 1 second.

[MrSnugglesGH]

Same here on Ubuntu 22.04

Edit: In my case, everytime I open a new app or a new window of already opened app, and copy something for the first time my mouse freezes for 1s. There are no more freezes after that.

Edit2: Actually, I think there are stutters on second, third and so on copy within an app/window. Although they don't last as long as the first stutter does.

[lepa22]

I have also noticed this issue. It happens when the Play an Audio on Copy option is enabled. When the option is disabled there is no noticeable stuttering on my machine.

[Conobi]

Same here, on Manjaro Linux, GNOME Shell 42.5 running on Wayland. Pano freezes my entire screen and mouse, the pop sound is freezing too (plays in loop) for maybe 300 ms. This issue makes Pano unusable!

[TheOPtimal]

It gets even worse:

When sound isn't available, it freezes for around 7 seconds. For some reason, the sound playing is a blocking operation.

Still freezes, it's really annoying and affects work. It freezes even without sound enabled.
