AwesomeTTS problem

Anki Add-ons
1

Hello!
I have used awesomeTTS for a good while now, to add pronunciation to my cards, which worked just fine.
Now as Im adding cards, everyting worked, and just now the addon (or anki?) crashes all the time…
this is what I get:

Error
An error occurred. Please start Anki while holding down the shift key, which will temporarily disable the add-ons you have installed.
If the issue only occurs when add-ons are enabled, please use the Tools > Add-ons menu item to disable some add-ons and restart Anki, repeating until you discover the add-on that is causing the problem.
When you've discovered the add-on that is causing the problem, please report the issue on the add-on support site.

This error will be fixed someday, I think. At the moment I can only suggest to either use on-the-fly tts with Google or Azure voices if you don’t review on mobile, use the add-on from the browser window to batch generate audio for many notes at once or install AwesomeTTS - Add speech to your flashcards - AnkiWeb. As far as I know, it’s already fixed there.

Thanks @kelciour , I believe this is due to the lazy loading of some dialogs and some reference getting garbage collected. This caching of dialogs has been problematic on occasion, I think there’s a better way of doing it (let me think).
