Hey,

I also had the pcm error when i started pd with the rme card.

What i did:

after starting the machin i did not login but first run alsaconf from 
the first consol as root. The rme card needs to have store first. After 
configuring the card i did login. Next start jack and then pd. Now use 
the sound and midi configuration and pd is running.

Thats the way i got pd running.
Hope that is helping you.
