Well, despite the terrible noise, this solution is certainly better
than letting audacious suddenly die. However, I can't avoid comparing
this to mplayer's behaviour, where it just keeps playing without any
audible problem.
This is what I see when I open such an ape file with the mplayer
version currently at the Debian unstable repositories:

$ mplayer file.ape
MPlayer SVN-r28799-4.3.3 (C) 2000-2009 MPlayer Team
mplayer: could not connect to socket
mplayer: No such file or directory
Failed to open LIRC support. You will not be able to use your remote control.

Perhaps checking how ffape decodes these files could help?

Heh... Should I? :-)
