I am getting this error as well, and I can reproduce it.

Here's how it went (if it helps any): Was watching some vid on youtube.
I closed that tab in firefox, then about 5 seconds later used the global
play/pause hotkey in Amarok to resume playback of whatever I was
listening to the night before. Immediately got the 'xine was unable to
initialize any audio drivers' error, at which point Amarok stopped
playback. I opened the app, hit the play button. No error this time, it
just freaked, quickly cycling through all the songs in the playlist
(using the random songs dynamic playlist so this was an infinite loop).
Amarok after about 10 songs stops updating it's ui and won't respond to
requests to exit the app. Killall amarokapp works ;)

Now I can relaunch Amarok over and over and whenever it loads, I get
that error, whenever I click play I get that error. It isn't freaking
out with the playlist and crashing anymore. VLC gives no error, but
anything I play is just silence, though the interface _thinks_ it is
playing something.

I'm on Hardy by the way.. here are some version numbers and such:

amarok 2:1.4.8-0ubuntu1
amarok-xine 2:1.4.8-0ubuntu1
vlc 0.8.6.release.d-0ubuntu3
alsa-base 1.0.15-3ubuntu1
libxine1 1.1.8-3ubuntu2

Let me know if there's any useful information I could scrape from logs
or elsewhere.
