[Pw_forum] phonon, gk_sort error

Hello,

I am doing a simple test to calculate Si gamma phonons.

I run
pw.x -npool 4 < si3.scf.in > si3.scf.out

then
ph.x -npool 4 < si3.phG.in > si3.phG.out

which produces the following error:
      from gk_sort : error #         1
      array gk out-of-bounds

The error does not occur when I set -npool 1.

The error occurs for espresso-3.1 and 3.1.1, but not 2.1.5.

My input files are below.  Please let me know if I should provide other 
information.  Thanks.

Regards,
Kevin Chan
