PS: I'm not using Rosegarden. It might be that Rosegarden did show general MIDI information, even if no plug-in is loaded. E.g. the default might be "1 Acoustic Grand Piano". Perhaps Rosegarden than send the so called program change MIDI event, that will switch to sound number 1, but it won't play a audible note, because no plug-in synth is loaded, resp. no synth is connected to MIDI out. There's an odd standard called general MIDI, dunno, but perhaps Rosegarden has default settings regarding to this. If so, it must be confusing for you, since it looks like a synth is already connected. No, it isn't you need to add a synth first. Information about e.g. "Acoustic Grand Piano" is a dummy, for the MIDI event called "program change 1, under the condition, when using a general MIDI device", of cause my Oberheim Matrix-1000 don't has a "Acoustic Grand Piano" as sound number one. Better don't use Rosegarden :D. Try Qtractor or Ardour3, or perhaps some other Linux Sequencer. I experienced Rosegarden as a PITA. The only advantage of Rosegarden is, that it has got a notation software included. I don't need this. Do you need notation printing?
