Yayy, progress...
The PianoKeyboard in the Parts Bin now includes a built-in synthesizer (still
very crude) so it can make sound.
There's a demo page at...
http://lively-kernel.org/repository/webwerkstatt/users/Dan/SoundTest2.xhtml
This works in Chrome and Firefox but not in Safari, where it tries to fall back
to Flash, but this does not work for some reason. If you can figure out what
is wrong with the Flash code, please let us know!
Thanks to Robert for several tips and fixes.
