Problem details: When new maps are imported into osu! it is not performing difficulty calculations.
In the stable branch the runtime.log spews a bunch of random stuff, but on the cutting edge branch it says it's trying to calculate difficulty for map ID 0.
osu!stable logs
osu!cutting edge logs

Excerpt of the cutting edge logs:
2022-07-18T21:52:44: (0) difficulty calculation started.
2022-07-18T21:52:44: Attempting to connect to osu-lazer...
2022-07-18T21:52:44: Connected to osu-lazer.
2022-07-18T21:52:44: Notification: Beatmap difficulty calculation is running in the background. Performance at song select may be lower than usual.

A thing that might be worth noting is that I have an installation of both osu! and osu!lazer on this system and they sometimes run in conjunction, however I had lazer installed for over a year and this just started happening today.

osu! version: b20220424 & b20220713cuttingedge

You most likely have a broken beatmap that the game is trying to calculate the difficulty of, but is getting stuck on.

How long did you leave the game open on the beatmap selection screen before grabbing those logs?

1-2 minutes since I was going back & forth between versions, but I only noticed that issue occurring when I downloaded 2 new maps which are ranked, so unsure why would it break then (previously I did not have any difficulty calculation pop ups)

EDIT: Between yesterday and today I shut off and turned on my PC and saw that the 2 ranked maps that I mentioned above got calculated, but I was still getting the pop-up.
In the song selection screen I deleted all maps with the following criteria:
stars=0 length=0
and restarted osu!, after which the pop up stopped showing.
I also downloaded a new ranked map and the calculations performed without issues, so I consider this resolved.
