I'd wager you have a HyperThreading CPU and have not updated to Amarok
1.3.6 (available from Guru's RPM repository). The developers discovered
an incompatibility w.r.t. HT CPUs. There was even an interim release in
which Amarok diagnosed the presence of an HT CPU and told you not to
run it. Shortly thereafter the fix was devised and release.
