Comment (by ossman):

 I don't really know what MPD is, but the errors you see are rather easily
 explained. You have something else hogging the sound card, and your sound
 card only supports one program at a time. So either make sure PulseAudio
 gets exclusive access to the device or use dmix as your default alsa
 device.
