I get this message too. It comes from artsd. I don't think it works with
the sound driver for the pismo.
I disabled the kde sound server in the kde control panel - I don't get the
message any more, and I can now use xmms with the oss or esound drivers (I
just don't get any other sound at the same time any more).
