Please report on Debian BTS against Dragon Player then, include all
terminal outputs and other system logs, if there is anything interesting
there. Use "reportbug" package to do that.
Also you may want to try Dragon Player on another machine before
submitting bug, to make sure this is not your setup at fault. And/or you
can try Bookworm see how it works there with newer version.
