It would be most helpful to attach to the amarokapp process consuming all the 
cpu with a debugger:
- find out its pid, e.g. do: 'ps -ef | grep amarokapp' - the pid is the number 
in the 2nd column
- do 'gdb -p PID' where you replace PID with the number from above
- now, gdb will show you a prompt, where you should enter 'thread apply all 
bt'

Please send us what gdb will be printing to the screen.
