I popped back in to check email just now and noticed there were no
responses on this.

I searched google for:

     "timeout waiting for ack" amanda

and found some discussion threads on the amanda users list with a link to:

     http://wiki.zmanda.com/index.php/Amcheck:_selfcheck_request_failed

which looks like an excellent troubleshooting page for this problem.
