When shutting down my game I unload all loaded assets. When I come to the samples I first run al_stop_samples(). The samples are stored in an array and I step through it and call al_destroy_sample() on each sample. When I start getting to the end (246 out of 255) the process crash, 100% repro. If I skip loading that sample that crash the game it will instead crash on the next sample (247).

Why and when does al_destroy_sample() crash? Could it be that the sample's memory slot have been corrupted by other data? When debugging it is really hard to see anything since all I see in the debugger for Sound[246] is its memory address and that does not change from when it is loaded to when I try to destroy it.

Anyone?

EDIT: Stupied mistake of trying to free same memory twice. Feel free to remove this thread.

Have you made sure that Allegro was deinitialized after you destroyed everything? I've encountered this problem by putting the shutdown code in an atexit callback but letting Allegro register a custom atexit callback. In such a situation, Allegro's atexit callback may be run first, so instead of al_init() you have to use al_install_system(NULL, ALLEGRO_VERSION_INT) and call al_uninstall_system() in your custom atexit callback.
