DVCPROHD Audio Plugin Failure

I couldn't find a place where this really fit—it's an audio plugin question, but I don't use the Pro Software—so I put it in the general OSX category; feel free to move it.

My issue is with the DVC PRO HD Audio plugin (/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/HAL/DVCPROHDAudio.plugin). I am using a simple afplay command to try and add sounds on startup/login, but I note the following error when using the command through terminal:


afplay[18548:903] Error loading /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/HAL/DVCPROHDAudio.plugin/Contents/MacOS/DVCPROHDAudio: dlopen(/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/HAL/DVCPROHDAudio.plugin/Contents/MacOS/DVCPROHD Audio, 262): no suitable image found. Did find:

For some reason the audio plug in is not loading correctly, and i can't figure out why. To my knowledge I have never messed with the audio plugins on my computer. Kicker: the command worked the first time I used it, but has failed in subsequent uses. Not sure if restart fixes the issue. Any ideas?

I have been receiving the same message in Console. It is identified as an iDVD 2 Project. Restarting does not fix this. Here's what my Console reports:

I have this problem happening on a fresh OS X 10.6.5 Install + Logic Studio 9. The console log is filling up with it like crazy. I guess I will remove it from the system for now, but I sure would like to know what it is and what affects the removal of it may have.

I get the same errors as everyone else, and my plug shows as Universal with a version number of 1.3.2.
