soundplay_node.py crashes after a certain period
Hello
I have a ros node which successfully executes the following lines of (pseudo)code:
sc.playWaveFromPkg("sound_play", "/home/jan/synthts_et-master/synthts_et/out_tnu.wav");
sleep(seconds + 1);
sc.stopAll();
I get the desired sound for approximately 300 iterations or so (which corresponds to hours of audio). However, after that my soundplay_node.py crashes with the following error message:
[ERROR] [1524690159.260685]: Exception in callback: Environment configuration is invalid: cannot locate rospack ([Errno 24] Too many open files)

The only nodes running are the soundplay_node.py and the node publishing the .wav file. I have contemplated on this issue and my own thoughts have halted to a standstill. Maybe you have some insight into this. Thank you!
This is most likely a file handle leak in either
soundplay_node.pyor some of the code it uses.I'd recommend you post this over at ros-drivers/audio_common/issues.
Btw: may I suggest a topic title change? The current title suggests that already after a (short) while the node crashes, while in reality:
Hello! Thank you for the responses. I followed your suggestion and edited the topic title. I will also post this at ros-drivers/audio_common/issues.
