Hi,
I think my first reply failed to send and couldn't find the text
anywhere... Damn :(

Ok some points.
1) If you don't need the idx, just pass NULL. That's what other
examples in the code tree do. Look at the other examples for inspiration
here.
2) You do not call pa_proplist_free() and thus this is leaky code.
3) You pass a string when the function expects a pa_sink*. If you want
to pass a name use pa_scache_play_item_by_name() instead. I'm very
surprised the above even compiles. You will almost certainly have a
pa_sink* when you call this function so I'd suggest using it. You may
also want to chose a slightly less evil volume than PA_VOLUME_NORM, but
this can obviously be tweaked later!

You need to get a backtrace. Logging is more or less useless sadly.
Run gdb -p `pidof pulseaudio`, then call the handle line as noted on the
wiki: http://pulseaudio.org/wiki/Community, then use "continue" and
trigger the crash. You'll then get a nice backtrace.
