I run up against the same problem with threads when trying to 
play audio asynchronously - the callbacks are made from another 
thread which is created outside D. I solved it by disabling GC in 
callbacks that might invoke it, but it seems there's another 
solution to try out.

Why would such a callback need to allocate memory? For a similar 
project I used PortAudio with the D bindings [1]. In the 
callback, I just copy data from the D data stream to the port 
audio buffers and consume the copied data from the data stream. 
It works perfectly without any GC calls.
