My situation improved a bit after upgrading to the latest udev available. 
With 164-r1 I don't have these errors in the log anymore. Unfortunately when 
I try to rip the CD with KDE stuff, the process slows still down until it 
aborts.

However, the situation improved with the CLI tools (even running from with 
KDE). Cdda2Wav takes now 2,5 mins for a 45min CD, cdparanoia takes nearly 
twice, but succeeds also. After reconfiguring abcde to take cdda2wav I can 
at least rip CDs into MP3s in a quite normal time.
