Description

What's the problem? Describe what went wrong in few words.

Every other time I hit the "play" button on Dolphin to start an iso, it crashes to desktop.

This happens consistently where I'll boot a GCN game (not tested with wii games), close the window, Dolphin will ask me to confirm close and everything will function normally, but if I press play again on the same game or a different one it will silently crash. Starting it again lets me play fine for the one time.

What did you expect to happen instead?

Dolphin shouldn't crash, should be able to play two games in one session.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

  1. Install Dolphin from PPA on Ubuntu 14.04
  2. Start a game, let it reach the title screen
  3. Close the game
  4. Start another, watch it crash

Dolphin 3.5 and 3.5-367 are old versions of Dolphin that have
known issues and bugs, so don't report issues about them and test the
latest Dolphin version first.
Which versions of Dolphin did you test on?

4.0-4163 (from PPA)

Does using an older version of Dolphin solve your issue? If yes, which
versions of Dolphin used to work?

Not tested

What are your PC specifications? (including, but not limited to: Operating
System, CPU and GPU)

Ubuntu 14.04 amd64, Intel i3-3220 @ 3.3GHz, Nvidia GeForce GTX 650

Is there any other relevant information? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files)

On the emulation screen the title bar doesn't reach the point where it shows the plugins, I don't know if this is relevant but usually the window displays for me "Dolphin 4.0-4163 | JIT64 DC | OpenGL | HLE | FPS: 60 - VPS: 60 - 100%" right, but when it crashes it doesn't reach that point, it gets to "Dolphin 4.0-4163 | <ISO DIRECTORY>" and then stops and immediately closes on a white emulation window.

No settings seem to affect this.
