Mysterious crash in HALObject::PropertiesChanged

Can anyone throw any light on the crash below?  It is from a customer site and I am told it occurred while the user was reconfiguring the inputs on his PreSonus Firebox.  The only audio device property listeners we install are for kAudioDevicePropertyDeviceIsAlive and kAudioDeviceProcessorOverload so I don't think it's us.  And we gracefully handle, for example, unplugging a USB device, so I know that our listeners are well-behaved.
 
The following appears in the list of loaded dylibs.  I don't know if it might be relevabnt:
 
0x43e000 -   0x44aff7 +com.rogueamoeba.audio_hijack_server.hermes 2.2.5 (2.2.5) <CD6C7A74-BA03-F3A7-0D1E-460E6A043024> /usr/local/hermes/modules/Instant Hijack Server.hermesmodule/Contents/MacOS/Instant Hijack Server
 
Other than that, the machine in question seems to be free of potentially destabilising plugins.  From other information in the crash report (which is meaningful to me but not to anyone else) we were taking audio from the Firebox and playing it back through the built-in speakers out at the time.
 
Any input gratefully received.
 
Many thanks,
