In your case, it's fairly straightforward; some other applications has
grabbed the sound device:
...
I: (alsa-lib)setup.c: Cannot lock ctl elem
I: (alsa-lib)setup.c: Cannot lock ctl elem
I: (alsa-lib)setup.c: Cannot lock ctl elem
I: (alsa-lib)setup.c: Cannot lock ctl elem
D: alsa-util.c: Set neither period nor buffer size.
I: (alsa-lib)setup.c: Cannot lock ctl elem
I: alsa-util.c: snd_pcm_hw_params failed: Device or resource busy
...

In short, stop what ever application is racing with PA to gain control
of the sound device.

sudo fuser -v /dev/dsp* /dev/snd/* /dev/seq*
may shed some light.
