| The filter you are wanting to use has exited the building. |
So far my experience with Premiere Pro CS6 has been less than stellar with frequent crashes, including the absolutely worse kind - the dreaded kernel panic. One of the crashes I have experienced is dealing with audio. I have a project that has some noticeable room tone present in the interview bites. My producer wanted me to remove the noise if possible, so I wanted to give Audition a try at it. When I attempted to send to Audition using the command from within the NLE, Premiere Pro crashed. It did it on the two occasions I tried it, and I didn't feel like trying a third time.
As an alternative, I found the DeNoiser audio filter within Premiere Pro and gave it a try. The results were great. But some time later, while scrubbing the timeline, Premiere Pro caused a kernel panic. It was as if Adobe was hellbent on preventing me from removing noise from my audio! Upon restarting the project, I received an error message that the filter was missing! I never realized a plugin could just go offline without willfully deleting it. The filter is still present and available to use, but once I apply it to clips in this project, the error occurs. Deleting the filter from the clips allows me to continue editing.
Searching the Adobe forums revealed my issue and the circumstances that can lead to such an error. It turns out that if you imported from a Final Cut Pro XML file, which I did, this problem can occur. Apparently if you recreate the project from scratch within Premiere Pro, the error will not occur. So there appears to be an issue with the way Premiere Pro is interpreting the audio from within the Final Cut Pro XML file.
Ultimately this is going to be a problem for me because two of my main editing clients are producers who do their own rough cuts in Final Cut Pro. So if I want to edit these projects in Premiere, I have to go the XML route. Being able to send to Audition, or use the what-seems-to-be wonderful Denoiser filter, are features of Premiere Pro I'd like to have at my disposal. I'll be keeping an eye on this forum thread to see if Adobe can offer a remedy.
For a workaround, I exported the audio I needed to be cleaned as an AIFF file and opened up in Audition. I ran the noise remover, saved and imported the AIFF back in to the project and synced it to my timeline. I would prefer to send it to Audition and "round trip it" back in to Premiere Pro, but I can at least do it this way for the time being.
The thread to keep an eye on his here.

Had exactly the same problem Brian, except in my case I was processing audio from Premiere using PluralEyes (which requires an export to FCP XML as part of the process). When I imported the XML file generated by Pluraleyes everything worked great until I tried to apply audio filters.
