I can not see where such an error message box should come from...
Are you sure you use the current git version of Kwave?
Are you sure that you do not have another version of Kwave installed on
your system (possibly bringing in old plugin versions)? As Kwave
directly uses ALSA output (which is not the preferred default) I can
conclude that you used Kwave before and have a config file from an older
version.

Could you please check the things above and provide a *complete* log
file, from the start of the program (including the version number)?
