Wired won't load projects or presets

[screamlab]

On a clean install of UbuntuStudio, Wired launches properly, but saved projects (and Drum31 presets) are reported as unable to read on any attempt to load.
Wired can be repeatably crashed by attempting to load samples into Drum31 into slots that were previously occupied (upon reload of preset, loaded slots show blank, with no samples)
System is a Acer 8204WLMi laptop, Centrino Duo 2gHz, 2gig RAM, 120gig HDD, ATI X1600, dual boot UbuntuStudio/WinXP.
Am attempting to re-install to see if this fixes the issue.

Have done a clean re-install, with no additional libraries or plugins.
Wired will now save and load projects, but is still unable to load Drum31 presets.
They reload with any previously loaded sample slots blank, and it still crashes if you try to reload a sample.
Console output indicates that 'file is malformed', but all my sample files are valid WAV's, and they load fine until I save/reload.
Attached is XML report

This really appears to be a bug in wired, rather than ubuntustudio-meta. Since wired is not in the repositories, this can't be a supported version of wired. As a result, I'm marking the bug invalid.
