Thanks so much for filing this!

So my guess is this crash is the dmedia-cli side of this dmedia-service crash:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/dmedia/+bug/1124838

Which was caused by this:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libappindicator/+bug/1124941

A fix has been released, so if you wouldn't mind updating your packages and seeing if you still encounter this.

Installing the LTSEnablementStack in Ubuntu 12.04.2 led to having the 3.5 Kernel, which broke the Virtualbox Kernel module → can't test if the released fix resolves the problem.
