It's happening on all pclos boxes. Well, the error message is bubbling up from pulseaudio, so either amaroK is passing it the wrong thing, or pulse has a bug. So, the first question is, do you actually need any functionality pulseaudio provides and alsa doesn't? If not, I would kill it—it's just one more thing that can go wrong on your system. You might still want to file a bug against amaroK, though. If you do, it would be a good idea to include the exact version of pulseaudio that's causing the problem, and check with your distro to see if they're using any patches that might affect fdsem.c E.
