I should have posted the some code of core.py:

"""
This module uses ctypes to interface to libmms. Currently, it just
exposes the mmsx interface, since this one is the most flexible.
"""

from ctypes import *

libmms = cdll.LoadLibrary("libmms.so.0")

# opening and closing the stream
libmms.mmsx_connect.argtypes = [c_void_p, c_void_p, c_char_p, c_int]
libmms.mmsx_connect.restype = c_void_p

libmms.mmsx_close.argtypes = [c_void_p]
libmms.mmsx_close.restype = None


And so on ...

If I comment the mmsx_connect lines, I have the same problem with the
mmsx_close ones ...
If somebody has an idea on how debug a ctypes problem, it would be
very helpful.
