Same problem here!

...and lots of messages in errorlog too.
Btw, I have trouble with addon-storage on HAL too, generating a lot of messages in /var/log/messages:
# ps afx |grep hal
2584 ? Ss 0:01 /usr/sbin/hald --daemon=yes
2593 ? S 0:00 \_ hald-runner

4473 ? S 0:01 \_ kdeinit4: kwrite [kdeinit] /home/jan/.kde4/Autostart/halrepair
4755 pts/1 S+ 0:00 \_ grep hal
These message occur even when addon-storage is nog connected. My workaround here:
# sudo killall hald-addon-storage
