Not necessarily, this error message is a red herring most likely.

Here's from the package description:

Description: simple abstract interface for playing event sounds
 libcanberra defines a simple abstract interface for playing
 event sounds. 
 
 libcanberra relies on the XDG sound naming specification for
 identifying event sounds. On Unix/Linux the right sound
 to play is found via the mechanisms defined in the XDG sound
 theming specification.

(thanks to your query I see it's installed on my system and unneeded,
purging it :)

  I have also read that (lib)canberra-gtk-module has to do with
  sound.  But I have to go by the error message which I gave, no?

  And I asked: where is the file  libcanberra-gtk-module  ?  And
  no one has yet given me an answer to this question.

libcanberra-gtk-module is for creating/playing sound events.  All that
will happen if you install it is that mutt still won't do what you want,
but you'll get an error sound to tell you.

That error seems to be unrelated. canberra-gtk-module is for playing
event sounds, it's not involved in opening iceweasel from mutt.

I can't find this module on my system, presumably because it is hidden in
some sub-directory.  I think that I'm actually looking for
libcanberra-gtk-module.

Has anyone else had this difficulty? do you know where
libcanberra-gtk-module is hiding?
Check the installed files tab of the properties window for 
libcanberra-gtk-module.  If the module is not installed, Synaptic will 
tell you that, if it is, the Installed Files tab will tell you were 
pretty much everything is.


TIA for assistance!
