    I don't know exactly what your problem was but there is one thing
that has been noted many times before - don't run krellm, xosview, top,
or any other system monitor while trying to run low-latency audio apps. 
I'm not sure if this had anything to do with the seg fault but it can
certainly help your system run more efficiently if you don't run system
monitors.
