Yeah, that was a bug in the ALSA sequencer driver for FluidSynth (was
called iiwusynth). Its fixed in FluidSynth CVS. I just realized that
this hasn't been released yet. The current Swami CVS doesn't work with
FluidSynth CVS.. Until now.. Just committed my changes to Swami CVS to
work with FluidSynth CVS. Currently FluidSynth (and Swami) are
undergoing heavy development and API changes, but hopefully all this
will be sorted out soon :) Feedback is encouraged on the workings of
Swami CVS and FluidSynth CVS. I'd like to try and keep Swami working
with FluidSynth until release time. Cheers.
