Comment 10 for bug 347307

Things going worse.
I linked into your PPA and dowlnloaded the 1.09 Fluidsynth.
Unfortuanately I not get the following error when trying to run a .mid through Fluidsunth.

lash_open_socket: could not connect to host 'localhost', service '14541'
lash_comm_connect_to_server: could not create server connection
lash_init: could not connect to server 'localhost' - disabling LASH
fluidsynth: warning: Failed to pin the sample data to RAM; swapping is possible.
fluidsynth: error: Jack server not running?
Failed to create the audio driver

The RAM error is not new however the rest is, I reverted back to 1.08 and still the same error.
Do i need to install Jack?
Didn`t need it before though.

I don`t use Pulse deliberately, could it be that calling (-o audio.alsa.device=plughw:0) will bypass it.
Or will an uninstall be needed.

Many thanks
