Thanks for such a detailed log.

There are several reports on Google for that errors, so it seems they're 
not related to any specific application but ALSA itself.

Sorry, I'm afraid I can't be of any help here. 

If you are not having secondary effects (all works as usual) and it's only 
an annoying output maybe you can wait until "alsa-base" is updated to the 
latest version (1.0.24) and then retry from there.
