Huh!!!!  I googled for the error message and got no hits remotely like that (I 
tried 
the two sentences separately too).  Can I ask what incantation you used?

I ran that and got the result at:

http://www.hadrian-way.co.uk/Misc/strace_output.txt[1] 

(I've put it in a file for clarity; it wraps in the message.)

However, I can't make out from that what went wrong.  The dialog box signalling 
the 
error pops up immediately after the Sonic Pi banner.  There is a splash screen 
and 
then when this is dismissed, the error pops up.
