No sound in default TuxGuitar install from Software Centre

[Alex Lowe]

The default TuxGuitar app from the Software Centre (in both Oneiric and Precise) installs tuxguitar with only the ALSA support. Installing timidity and tuxguitar-jsa, as well as setting TuxGuitar to use timidity (which can be done simply by not installing the alsa support) fixes this.

I believe the only fix necessary is to require timidity and tuxguitar-jsa.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Having the exact same bug here in Xubuntu Quantal. Installing tuxguitar-jsa (without Timidity) seems to fix the issue.

As tell in the bug 852740, this bug was fixed (see bug 311319), but is no more fixed.

I fixed it on my computer after installing tuxguitar-jsa and set midi port to gervill

Having the exact same bug here in Ubuntu 14.04. Installing tuxguitar-jsa fix the issue.
It's just a missing dependance !

[BERREHAR (matthieu-berrehar)]

It's the same on Ubuntu 18.04.2 for TuxGuitar 1.2 : No sound when playing a tab.

Also solved by using "sudo apt-get install tuxguitar-jsa" (thanks to the documentation https://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/tuxguitar)
