Aloha. I'm using FB 2.20.0 with Qsynth 0.5.6 with fluidsynth 2.0.5 on OSX 10.14.6
When I try to playback midi from a score within FB using Qsynth, Qsynth shows the midi messages and the green-light blinks on and off appropriately but I get no sound. I've loaded the GeneralUser_GS_v1.471.sf2 soundfont and cannot find out what's wrong. At one point this did work but the circumstances were odd. I was similarly struggling to get it to work then, out of nowhere, there was scratchy irregular playback that finally stabilized and worked well. However, as I feared, when I tried to restart the setup, I was back to the same deal: all looks ok but no sound. This points to something about the soundfile but I don't know enough to further debug. Any thoughts or pointers would be welcome. When I play the same midi file with fluidsynth from the command-line with the same soundfile it works fine and SimpleSynth and VLC work fine so I know the computer audio is ok. I've tried changing the audio setting from default to speakers but no joy there either. Mahalo.
