Some client shutdowns hang Catia (from Carla 1237)

[ovenwerks]

Same issue as Carla 1237. ( falkTX/Carla#1237 )

Bisect shows that commit b54f8b3] Send position updates to metadata, matching carla. Was the fist commit to have this trouble.

From Carla 1237: Falktx: "Please try commenting out the 2 property related functions in Catia.
https://github.com/falkTX/Catia/blob/master/src/catia.py#L228
https://github.com/falkTX/Catia/blob/master/src/catia.py#L431

Yes that fixes the problem as well. I wonder is there is a different in the jackd1/jackd2 api in this case. Zita's author Fons, is well known for only ever using jackd1.

[falkTX]

that would be something to try too. seeing if the issue happens with jack2 only, or with jack1 as well.

also useful to see if commenting only 1st or 2nd part of catia code makes any difference.
my guess is that only the 2nd one is relevant.

My first guess was that it would be the callback (line 431) but it turns out it is the set_property call on line 228. If I comment out line 228 in src/catia.py the problem goes away.
