Yes I believe it is. pkg_version reports:
arts-1.1.4_3,1                      =   up-to-date with port

But you're right, I have narrowed it down to the arts port.  So, I will do 
some looking at arts related issues.  I narrowed it down by changing /dsp 
to /dsp0 in the hardware tab in the control center under multimedia and the 
error did move to dsp0.  

So, any other suggestions are welcome.  I may do a reinstall of the port - 
with all the changes recently, it wouldn't be a bad idea.
