Probably the same problem as I have here:
http://ardour.org/node/2872

If I am right in the post, it's a linux realtime setting problem and the report can be closed.

Hi,

the default upper limit in Linux is 1024 for realtime processes.

Edit your /etc/security/limits.conf and add:
USERNAME - nofile 100000

or any number above 1024 (nofile=number of open files).

Report can be closed.

looks like a user error (open file limit, external to ardour). no other feedback from OP. closing.
