Comment (by RJVB):

 The X11 shared memory errors are common and frequent, due to the fact that
 shared memory limits are quite low by default on Mac. I have started
 getting them after a GTk3 update, leading to apps being aborted until I
 wrote an X11 error handler that ignores certain errors. I figured out how
 to avoid the allocation failure by increasing the right limits but then
 got 2 KPs in a row while testing an update to webkit2-gtk and decided I
 could live with the errors that are mostly without consequence. (That
 might be different for video playback).

 Obvious/stupid question: did you verify if PA needs to load a dedicated
 module for supporting CoreAudio? I'm on my Linux system ATM, and see 3
 modules for ALSA, and 2 for OSS:
 {{{
   /opt/local/lib/pulseaudio/modules/libalsa-util.so
   /opt/local/lib/pulseaudio/modules/module-alsa-card.so
   /opt/local/lib/pulseaudio/modules/module-alsa-sink.so
   /opt/local/lib/pulseaudio/modules/module-alsa-source.so
   /opt/local/lib/pulseaudio/modules/liboss-util.so
   /opt/local/lib/pulseaudio/modules/module-oss.so
 }}}
