Do you have last.fm enabled? There is a bug in Amarok 2.1 and 2.1.1 that 
causes it to crash on run up. The bug can be seen at 
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=191828.

The work around I used was to edit amarok's config file to disable last.fm. 
The file is $KDEHOME/share/config/amarokrc. Look for a line like

amarok_service_lastfmEnabled=true

and change true to false
