All:
I do not have the latest development version of Rosegarden - only the
version that came with Ubuntu 11.10.
I have noticed it is easy to be confused about this sort of thing.
I tend to use Qjackctl to make connections, and I have seen at least one
instance where it was one of my manually-made connections going through,
rather than the ones Rosegarden sets up, that was confusing me.
With the version of Rosegarden I now have, I turned-off the MIDI-thru
routing (controlled by the 'selected' track), and just used the
track-select on my keyboard to control which track I send on.
Though the Rosegarden documentation I last read says the MIDI recording
filters work only while recording, I have wished they would be effective
at other times.
The way I use Rosegarden, I often play two keyboards at the same time,
and wish (while monitoring or practicing) they could go to different
MIDI channels (as they will during recording, controlled by the
recording filters).
It seems that the version of Rosegarden in Ubuntu 11.04 ("Betty Prior")
responded reliably according to what track was selected, and I never
considered turning-off the MIDI-thru routing.
The behavior where I could control which track sounded by changing the
transmit-channel on my keyboard seemed to happen with the Ubuntu 11.10
version (Don Juan).
But again (as I said), it is easy to be confused on this, because of the
Qjackctl 'patchbay' configuration I use.
I hope I am not confusing the issue, or wasting your time, but am hoping
this additional viewpoint may shed further light on the situation.
