I have an accessible object trigger that fires when I click the Play button in VLC. The trigger looks for the button to change/toggle to show a Pause button. This works great. Sometimes. Here is the trigger information I'm using:
STATECHANGE, CLIENT, -2
ow: class="QWidget", text="John Baxton - Tuba Blues - VLC media player"
ao: role=PUSHBUTTON, state=0x10000000, description="Pause the playback"
$a 138 -4 "" "QWidget" "" "VLC media player" "" "" 43 0x10000000 "" "" "Pause the playback" 0x2
Here is what happens:
1) The first time I created the trigger, it works fine.
2) When I close VLC, then open it again, the trigger doesn't fire.
But...
3) I can get the trigger working again without any changes to the trigger or macro.
4) If I use an accessible object wizard or log tool to "look" at the Play button in VLC, and then cancel or close that tool, the trigger suddenly starts working.

Just say HEMP!
