[BUG] AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'props'

See original GitHub issue

Describe the bug pydoro fails to play sound(s). Please see “Additional Context”.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

pydoro --audio-check
Press Enter ‘…’
See error

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/snap/pydoro/44/bin/pydoro", line 8, in <module>
    sys.exit(main())
  File "/snap/pydoro/44/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pydoro/pydoro_tui.py", line 130, in main
    sound.play(in_app_path("b15.wav"), block=True)
  File "/snap/pydoro/44/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pydoro/pydoro_core/sound.py", line 135, in _play_sound_nix
    _play_sound_nix_blocking(sound)
  File "/snap/pydoro/44/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pydoro/pydoro_core/sound.py", line 114, in _play_sound_nix_blocking
    playbin.props.uri = "file://" + pathname2url(os.path.abspath(sound))
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'props'

Expected behavior I expected pydoro to play it’s default sound or one that I chose (.wav).

Thanks for responding (wow that was fast!). I have the following packages in both the build/stage packages:

    build-packages:
      - python3
      - python3-gi
      - python3-pip
      - python3-pygame
      - python3-gst-1.0      
      
    stage-packages:
      - python3
      - python3-gi
      - python3-pygame
      - python3-gst-1.0
      - gstreamer1.0-libav

That same error shows up in several places on the internet and so I added gstreamer in stage to see if would pick it up. I’ve also opened a thread here.

In fact, once I got the snap working, I intended to do a PR so others could reference the snap - which I’m happy to maintain since it automatically builds when you perform commits to your repo.

Hey, @JaDogg just an FYI

It turns out that Pop!_OS may be the real trouble-maker here.

They use /etc/pop-os/os-release instead of /etc/os/release like everyone else. The snap works fine on other distros.
