This is a buglet in Executor's sound driver; instead of giving a fatal
error, it should just disable itself :-).

It is unlikely that Executor will ever work with the pcsnd driver,
because Executor relies on some of the more obscure (real-time)
features of the stock Linux drivers.  If you want sound, you'll need a
sound card.

Cheers!
