You are running Fedora ??
Well, there is no libvdpau_r300.so on my system and "yum whatprovides */libvdpau_r300.so" returns nothing.....
What do you get when you "ldd /usr/bin/mplayer | grep libvdpau" ?
I don't get any reference to libvdpau_r300.so. Only....
libvdpau.so.1 => /usr/lib/libvdpau.so.1 (0x4b827000)

Just as in your case,
ldd /usr/bin/mplayer | grep libvdpau
returns nothing.
Ditto for vlc.
Libvdpau_r300 comes from Mesa, which is not available on fedora reppos.

What type of HW do you have? Do you have a bluetooth adapter of sorts? Can you disable it?
If you don't have any bluetooth devices, you can try
yum erase pulseaudio-module-bluetooth
It will also remove other bluetooth stuff which you wouldn't need.

My laptop has no BT chip or usb dongle at all. Have had it since 2004. The audio chipset is: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] AC'97 Modem Controller (rev a0) Multimedia audio controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] C-Media AC'97 Sound Controller (rev a0)

I see....
Well, certainly my suggestion about removing pulseaudio-module-bluetooth should *NOT* be followed. I just noticed that it will result in removing gnome-shell.....not that I would miss it....being a KDE user. :-)
I suspect Bryn has a better handle on it than I do....

Those messages refer to the LADSPA sink for pulseaudio. This is the "Linux Audio DSP Architecture", a framework for chainable audio effects plugins (similar to Steinberg VST in some ways).
Do you use any LADSPA plugins or effects on this system?
Pulse is attempting to load a graph with a LADSPA multiband equalizer configuration defined:
sink_name=ladspa_output.mbeq_1197.mbeq master=alsa_output.pci-0000_00_02.7.analog-surround-51 plugin=mbeq_1197 label=mbeq control=-11.6,-5.4,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0"
The master sink it references doesn't appear to exist so it fails the module load and gives up.
If you have configured any kind of EQ on the system then you might want to try unconfiguring it.
Regards, Bryn.

Try starting it with verbose on:
$ pulseaudio --start --log-level=10
etc. and see if you get anything meaningful on the failure?

I read the man page and indeed it says --log-level[=LEVEL] If an argument is passed, set the log level to the specified value, oth‐ erwise increase the configured verbosity level by one. The log levels are numerical from 0 to 4, corresponding to error, warn, notice, info, debug. Default log level is notice, i.e. all log messages with lower log levels are printed: error, warn, notice.
$ pulseaudio --log-level=10 --start E: cmdline.c: --log-level expects log level argument (either numeric in range 0..4 or one of debug, info, notice, warn, error). E: main.c: Failed to parse command line.
So try --log-level=4 instead?
