Issue Saving a Patch

I am using Pd 0.56.0 (Linux/amd64 - single precision) version of Pure Data
on Ubuntu 24.04 and having a strange issue I'm having trouble tracking
down. Wondering if anyone has come across this issue and found a solution.
I have a patch that I am working on and after working on it for a while I
can no longer save it . If I open that patch, make a quick change and save
it, that works fine. After editing it for a while doing simple things like
adding comments I can go to the file menu and save it, though it appears to
work it doesn't actually save the file. The way I know it hasn't saved the
file is if I then go to close the file , the prompt comes up asking if I
want to save the file even though I just did save it. Also at that point I
can't quit the program. It again asks if I want to save the program and I
say yes but it doesn't quit. I then quit it in the console with cntrl c.
And when reopening see that it hasn't saved my changes. The patch is
working fine before and after I try to save and close it. Except there is a
strange anomaly which is that I am playing short audio wav files using Else
player and each time it goes to play the file there is a message in the
console saying it can't find the file. Even though it plays the file it
says it can't find. I don't have other instances of PD open or other panels
that would prevent me from closing PD. It is a very strange issue I've
never seen but it's driving me a bit bonkers as it appears pretty random
when it decides it can no longer be saved. Any thoughts on what could be
causing this strangeness?
