Hi,
This looks like a bug in UHD 4.0.0.0 that has been fixed but not yet released:
https://github.com/EttusResearch/uhd/issues/380
I think that leaves you a few options for workarounds that don't involve switching your distribution:
1) Compile UHD from source with a patch from the commit linked in that bug.
2) Ditch the Manjaro package and use an alternative package (e.g. conda, which still uses UHD 3.15: https://wiki.gnuradio.org/index.php/CondaInstall)
3) Get in contact with the Manjaro / Arch UHD maintainer and get them to update UHD with the patch.
Cheers,
Ryan

Whatever the frequency, the signals on the QT frequency sink "do not move". the computer is not frozen, I can still interact with the window, but the signal just freeze. Everything works fine at a sample rate of 4M or below. I don't think this is a problem with the usrp as it does the same with the hackrf.

Does anyone here use Manjaro / Arch and has encountered a similar problem? I'm very happy with the system by the way and I don't really want to switch back so quickly ... :)
