I disable and mask these services in order to optimize my system. After upgrading to the latest (thank you very much btw), I'm seeing this odd behavior. These attempts cause the software to hang.

re. qtractor 0.9.10 appears to be trying to start various
qtractor does not start any services at all! there is no code in there for just that!
most probably it is your desktop environment (is it gnome?) that is doing just that behind the scenes...
sorry, but qtractor is found innocent here.

Things that make you go "hmmm
Things that make you go "hmmm......". Glad to know it's not qtractor. I'll find it. Odd though since I'm not using (bloated) Gnome. I'm lean and mean over here with i3. Thank you for the feedback.

Oh I always have those masked
Oh I always have those masked (as well as others) and was running the previous version with no issue. It was only after trying to run the latest version that I came across thing "hanging" behavior. That's why I posted the details. I'll try and get to the bottom of it tonight in order to pinpoint a root cause.
Root cause identified:
Root cause identified:
For cosmetic reasons, I have QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=gtk2
Now I'll circle back to that and decide if it's something I really need to maintain. Figured I'd add this information in the event anyone else encounters the problem.
