I too have the same issue. The workaround given by tomwu @ https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+source/akonadi/+bug/554514/comments/42 works. I don't know the implementation details but confident that there must be an easy way to check the akonadi process states before trying to use it and wait for it to start without relying on timing.
However, let's appreciate what we get for free and help improve it collectively. :-)
