A little info to add. Again, similar messages, and the program which is getting the error isn't giving anything away as to it's identity:

Which would perhaps tie in with the theory that this is some sort of race? Why I have this "-real" mapping left over in this case from yesterday morning's lvcheck run, I've no idea... ... I realise that the email date doesn't match up with the timestamp on the device files, but maybe this is a related event happening again?
