log on to XBMC with a terminal and simply type
ssh xbmc@localhost
If you are asked for a password, then you have same problem as me, (assuming you have set up ssh correctly.) If not I suspect then you may have a different problem. Turn xbmc debugging on (in system settings), restart xbmc and then try to fire up SAK. Then look at the log file /home/xbmc/.xbmc/temp/xbmc.log to see if that gives any clues.
if you can open another terminal you can
tail -f /home/xbmc/.xbmc/temp/xbmc.log
and watch the log whilst you try and start SAK. This may/may not give you some idea as to what is going on.
I had this problem but was able to fix it on Ubuntu 10.10 ($ just represents the command prompt, don't type it in).
$ sh-keygen -t rsa
Save without password
Copy and paste the key from ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
or
$ cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
Then run:
$ ssh-add
