This is unlikely to be the cause of the problem. It looks like
pulseaudio attempts all possible configurations for devices when loading
them to find out which ones work.
I've noticed that I get the same "floating point exception" when
attempting to use the a52 plugin without pulseaudio running at all
("pulse" device in this list is the alsa plugin that is configured by
default, not actually part of pusleaudio).

This problem seems to be caused in ALSA or the plugins package, but I don't
know how to diagnose it any further.
