Does it > indicate a kind of anomaly? Is it normal to fail to reserve the device? This may have various reasons. It's generated when PA has trouble to contact the D-Bus session daemon. Currenly, since we lack a seperate user bus in D-Bus a single PA instance may be shared among sessions but only know about the session bus it was started from. If that initial session goes away then it won't be able to contact that bus anymore and you get errors like the above. This might or might not be the problem in your case. This problem will hopefully go away as soon as D-Bus gets a seperate user bus.
