[PROBLEM]
Midi plays back, but there's no sound. :(


[SOLUTION]
You must load soundfonts into the SBLive. You can get them from the SBLive CD or for starters, you can use the default soundfont:
8mbgmsfx.sf2 (available on ALSA homepage)

On Ubuntu, do the following:
- Install "awesfx" package:

Code: Select all

apt-get install awesfx
- Load the soundfont:

Code: Select all

sfxload -b0 /path/to/soundfont/8mbgmsfx.sf2
