Ehy Mathieu,
thanks for test it!
Try the new version please.
It uses now [pd~] and the freeze thing doesn't happen anymore.
Note that in my case in order to use pd~ I had to compile pd vanilla
(0.42-5) because pd~ from extended it's broken to me (it's look for
/usr/lib/pd/bin/pd-gui).
download it:

let me know
