And you're trying to redeclare it as an associative array here. The
variable already exists; you can't convert it between array types;
and bash tells you this. If you want an associative array, unset the
variable before you declare it.
After your answer, I checked and I think the error message is not
related to the variable name collision :
[a...@axel-asus plugins]$ unset foo
[a...@axel-asus plugins]$ func()
> {
> echo "[a]=5 [b]=10"
> }
[a...@axel-asus plugins]$ declare -A foo=( $(func) )
-bash: foo: [a]=5: must use subscript when assigning associative array
-bash: foo: [b]=10: must use subscript when assigning associative array
[a...@axel-asus plugins]$ echo ${foo[a]}
[a...@axel-asus plugins]$ declare -a bar=( $(func) )
[a...@axel-asus plugins]$ echo ${bar[0]}
[a]=5
