you might need to install a soundfont. For example "fluid-soundfont-gm". A timidity service can be started on system boot and load a soundfound. Then you can direct midi-output from frescobaldi to a timidity-port and use frescobaldis midiplayer. I don't really remember all needed steps, because nowadays I use Jack and qsynth or for example aeolus, to test a piece in an ancient tuning. Frescobaldi is routed to alsa-midi-through, which then can be patched to any input available. IMO that is fun and quite powerful, but if you just want to play some midi-files, installing jack might be too much.
