I don't have a clue why Rosegarden is causing this and MusE isn't.  Upon 
a superficial and quick comparison, they both appear to work the same 
way in the case where QSynth is already running, and it's configured to 
use pulseaudio: they both start with audio support disabled, due to 
being unable to start jackd, because pulseaudio has control of the hardware.

I'm really surprised the FluidSynth developers are taking you to task 
for using the audio server for musicians, and insist that you use the 
consumer grade audio server that's mostly good for system notifications, 
playing video with the sound completely out of sync, and just 
experiencing shockingly horrible latency all around.

Oh well, I can't say I'm paying any attention to Linux audio development 
outside Rosegarden's own little garden, so for all I know pulseaudio is 
the new thing and all the cool kids are doing it, and I'm an out of 
touch old fossil.

Either way, we don't have an audio developer on staff anymore.  I never 
was one to begin with, and that hat doesn't fit my head.  It's about 
five sizes too big for my pea sized brain pan, and just rattles around 
uselessly if I don it, so there's no use.
