One peculiar thing about the backtrace is that softvol is being used in alsa.
So that's one candidate where the bug might be instead of pulseaudio code.

The user didn't enable softvol himself. ~/.asoundrc or /etc/asound.conf don't
exist. Presumably softvol is enabled by the stock alsa configuration for the
"front" device. It could be tried if removing "front:%f" from the
device-strings of the analog-stereo mapping helps. We tried that already, but
it was removed only from profile-sets/default.conf, which didn't seem to have
any effect ("front:0" was still opened according to the logs), so I think
actually profile-sets/extra-hdmi.conf was being used.

The user, "ruler501", had to start doing something else, but he said that he'd
come back tomorrow to irc, so further debugging can be done at that point.
