Hmm, looks like a memory corruption. I suggest you try to reproduce this on a
different hardware, as this may well be a symptom of hardware errors.
I know the rest of the system may run fine for you, but one never knows given
the complexity of all the software -- and you're a single person that gets
*random* crashes with 2.7 I know of.
You may as well try with different phonon backends, their versions, and
versions of the underlying libraries. You can also try disabling all the
plugins and scripts you don't use.
