I can play midi files from command line but not with Rosegarden. I’m using QSynth, with Pulseaudio because I can’t get Jack to start, and I get a bunch of messages “no preset found on channel X” where X is 0 to 15. Are those messages related to my problem, which is that Rosegarden plays only the first note of a midi?
OpenSUSE 13.1 (KDE 4.11.5) on laptop with integrated sound from AMD/ATI, two devices on-board (standard speaker/headphone and HDMI), plus a USB Tritton Soundbyte with better balance and more sound than the onboard. Veromix handles them well.
I’ve searched this forum and those of other distros, and based on the results, I’ve added myself to audio group, also pulse and rtkit groups, and I’ve added realtime priority and memory lock to limits config file. I’ve tried stopping pulse but even then jack won’t load (and pulse’s config file is supposed to load a compatibility module if it detects jack).
Any ideas how to get Rosegarden playing all the way through? If the idea is, to use jack, then any idea how to get it to start?*
Thanks,
GEF
