Ignore my last question about disk IO etc. I know your drive is trashing... totally forgot to make connection from Mdv bug report and thread on alsa ML :p So I guess the problem is in some capacity PA freaking out in some capacity due to the alsa error and causing the thrashing, which in turn causes some IO cloggage which prevents your xfer going at a sensible speed... I'm not really sure more than that... tho'. Hopefully someone cleverer than me can offer a thought on your log file.
