Hi! I am also experiencing this problem from mutt. I also noticed that launching 'soffice' from a bash prompt with the -no-oosplash switch leads to the same error. It seems that oowriter does not suffer from this problem.
To circumvent this issue, I removed the -no-oosplash option from the file /usr/lib/mime/openoffice.org-writer and updated /etc/mailcap withc update-mime. Although it is not a real solution, it allows me to open office documents from mutt again.
