gnome-sound-recorder throws exception

Starting today, the gnome-sound-recorder seems to be broken. The following js error is reported:

$ gnome-sound-recorder

(org.gnome.SoundRecorder:16159): Gjs-CRITICAL **: 08:52:53.780: JS ERROR: SyntaxError: missing ) after catch @ resource:///org/gnome/SoundRecorder/js/listview.js:114
Script /usr/bin/gnome-sound-recorder threw an exception

Indeed. There is already a pull request upstream to fix this issue: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-so … requests/4

Re: gnome-sound-recorder throws exception

Latest version 3.28.1-2, works partially.
It launches, record and save the file but crashes when I try to play the clip.
Here is coredump:

coredumpctl list
