you might have to download the soundfonts.  I don't know if they come
packaged with the 9.11 DVD.  In fact, I seem to remember downloading both
Qsynth (fluidsynth) and the soundfonts.  I believe the FluidR3_GM soundfont
is actually in the debian repositories.  Yes, I just checked and I got this:

fluid-soundfont-gm - Fluid (R3) General MIDI SoundFont (GM)
fluid-soundfont-gs - Fluid (R3) General MIDI SoundFont (GS)

so you'd likely want to run

sudo apt-get install fluid-soundfont-gm

I guess if you're running from DVD you can't really install stuff huh... do
you have a persistent medium?  you may be able to get the soundfont file
directly and then provide muse score with a path to it.  I don't really know
how muse score works, but this should be a simple fix.

This might be something that needs to be fixed if MuseScore is included with
Puredyne.

hope this helps a little.
