Maybe a duplicate of http://tracker.ardour.org/view.php?id=7489

remove the `csladspa` package, scanning that plugin on recent Ubuntu can cause crashes.

PS. If this is the issues, this bug has meanwhile been fixed upstream in csound.

Thanks x42 for the quick reply. Removing the csladspa package resolved the issue.
