Thanks for the quick replies all. The Traceback made me wrongly
believe that perhaps sympy is doing something wrong. To be fair to
myself, I was also laid astray by:
http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=solve%282*x*cos%282*x%29+%2B+sin%282*x%29%29

Which gave me an approximate solution - I should have checked myself.

Anyway, thanks all and sorry for the noise.
