I use Gnome on Arch Linux and it is even worse when I decide to switch tty. I am thrown back to the login screen. Honestly I doubt there is anything I can do about issues involving tty switching. Depending on the distribution and desktop used different things can happen. And if they are killing the audio server in the process there is nothing I can do. Implementing automatic restarting on server death is really complicated in our case.

But it doesn't break with all ttys for some it seems to work.

Something you can try is running EE in debug mode. First kill it easyeffects -q and then start it this way G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=easyeffects easyeffects. Maybe something interesting is shown in its logs when the problem happens.

#1447 is enough to track this problem so we can close this issue.
