Port error on Ardour

I’m running Ubuntu Studio 18.10. In Ardour 5.12,.0-3. connecting to Jack, or ALSA, when I close a project then try to open another one, I get an error message that says “unable to create port: failed constructor. Click the Close button and try again”. The only way for me to open another project is to close then reopen Ardour. I tried deleting the instant.xml files, but that did not seem to help. No control surfaces are checked. I think that Ardour is set to handle many more tracks than I have. I have also exported the projects as archives, and imported them into Ubuntu Studio 18.10 on VirtualBox, and I don’t seem to have the same problem. Would completely uninstalling Ardour, then reinstalling help? I wonder if I installed an app that is interfering somehow with Ardour. Any suggestions as to how to fix this?
