Probably the kernel didn't find the hardware for that.  Does your
mainboard have it?  ("dmesg | grep -i hpet")

For some reason, PulseAudio thinks that your MIDI interface is the card
that should be used for PCM audio input/output.  Try configuring it to
use another card, or no card, or try disabling it in KDE.
