Audacity-1.3-14 will be removed ASAP, can you reproduce this bug with latest stable 2.0.0?
I'm not convinced any of these errors matter, and more to the point, I'm fairly sure that the origin is a messed-up set of ALSA configuration files creating references to PCM devices that aren't there. PortAudio tends to find these because it craws the ALSA list of PCM devices to find out what is available and what it can do. So I'm not convinced there is a real bug, and if there is it probably isn't an Audacity one.
Close as needinfo for now. Reopen if it happens with 2.x series.

thanks. does it cause any issues in audacity while using alsa?
No idea, but that I have said in the beginning.
