Was hoping there would be something obvious there in the data. So, you  
got the error, but the data looked normal-ish? Maybe try a  
Horde::debug(json_encode(array($this->scope, $this->_prefs))); just to  
be sure the json_encode is failing on the call that you are dumping...

Kind of running out of ideas.
