issue effecting my system, due to the similarities, but not 100% sure.
Typically about 12-18 days from a restart (seems to friend on load/usage)
the scheduler stops responding though everything else continues to work,
at least for a couple days, then I'll normally get a crash just before a
recording starts. Unfortunately my job keeps me on the road for a week or
two at a time, and my wife, while a good computer user, is not quite up to
using gdb.

These issues might well be related.....but without a gdb backtrace there
is no way to know for sure.
Honestly a helper script could be used that would launch the backend using
gdb and this script would be setup to log the crash (backtrace)
information as well as re-starting the process.
In other words....logging the backtrace and restarting the backend could
be automated via script.
