I installed FluidSynth and qsynth on my F13 / KDE install. When qsynth comes up, it asked me to do some additional configuration by modifying /etc/security/limits.conf to add: @audio - rtprio 100 @audio - nice -10 After I made the changes and restarted it, it then asked me to add myself to the audio group. I'm not sure what I did or why this needs to be done. I'd appreciate a pointer or some better advice. Logging in with my new group showed that qsynth was working, although I have yet to hear any sound from it. I tested with pianobooster, musescore, firefox on a site with MIDI, and a few other MIDI apps I thought would make MIDI sound. (I haven't logged out and back in through X yet. I'd prefer not to have to do so.) Am I doing something wrong? Should I go talk with the FluidSynth guys about my particular situation? Do we need to tweak the fluidsynth RPM?
