What OS? What sound device? What steps did you do to make it happen? etc etc etc
If it's on macOS, this can happen after putting the machine to sleep and waking it up. It's a warning that the current Portaudio stream was closed which can also happen when a connected device is unplugged. Previous to 0.49, Pd simply hard froze when this happened...

Hello List,
A couple of days ago I started getting this error message:
error -9988: Invalid stream pointer audio device not responding - closing audio you may need to save and restart pd
I'm not sure how to reproduce it. I tried several different patches and they all seem to randomly cause it. Sometimes pd freezes, sometimes I can turn dsp off and then on again and everything works. Google didn't help.
