| Summary | 0010002: Fluidsynth does not produce any sound | ||||
| Description | When playing notes on the virtual keyboard reasonable synth produces a sound with both the orange and green bars moving but fluid synth does not with only the orange bar moving. This happens regardless of the virtual instrument. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | In a new project add 2 midi tracks, 1 for reasonable synth and another for fluid synth. Play notes on the virtual keyboard and note the above symptoms. (This is probably due to system configuration issues and as such more difficult than this to reproduce. These are the steps required on my system and I have included more information below to help identify the issue.) | ||||
| Additional Information | Using fluidsynth 2.4.8-1 ardour 8.12-3 (available through the arch extra repository) pipewire 1:1.4.7-1 pipewire-jack 1:1.4.7-1 (I am aware that ardour does not support pipwire; however I do not believe that is the cause of the issue, but I cannot be certain so I am including this). I have seen this issue: https://discourse.ardour.org/t/i-get-no-sound-when-i-use-fluid-synth/107968 but the terminal output below leads me to believe that the cause is not the same. I have attempted to downgrade to fluidsynth 2.0.9 when `fluid_synth_set_sample_rate()` was not depreciated but the ardour package requires a more recent version Running ardour in the terminal gives the following output: Found nothing along /home/matti/.config/ardour8/templates:/usr/share/ardour8/templates ALSA lib pcm_dsnoop.c:567:(snd_pcm_dsnoop_open) unable to open slave ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1000:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave ALSA lib pcm.c:2722:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.rear ALSA lib pcm.c:2722:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.center_lfe ALSA lib pcm.c:2722:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.side ALSA lib confmisc.c:1377:(snd_func_refer) Unable to find definition 'cards.0.pcm.hdmi.0:CARD=0,AES0=4,AES1=130,AES2=0,AES3=2' ALSA lib conf.c:5205:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_refer returned error: No such file or directory ALSA lib conf.c:5728:(snd_config_expand) Evaluate error: No such file or directory ALSA lib pcm.c:2722:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM hdmi ALSA lib confmisc.c:1377:(snd_func_refer) Unable to find definition 'cards.0.pcm.hdmi.0:CARD=0,AES0=4,AES1=130,AES2=0,AES3=2' ALSA lib conf.c:5205:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_refer returned error: No such file or directory ALSA lib conf.c:5728:(snd_config_expand) Evaluate error: No such file or directory ALSA lib pcm.c:2722:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM hdmi ALSA lib confmisc.c:1377:(snd_func_refer) Unable to find definition 'cards.0.pcm.modem.0:CARD=0' ALSA lib conf.c:5205:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_refer returned error: No such file or directory ALSA lib conf.c:5728:(snd_config_expand) Evaluate error: No such file or directory ALSA lib pcm.c:2722:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.phoneline:CARD=0,DEV=0 ALSA lib confmisc.c:1377:(snd_func_refer) Unable to find definition 'cards.0.pcm.modem.0:CARD=0' ALSA lib conf.c:5205:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_refer returned error: No such file or directory ALSA lib conf.c:5728:(snd_config_expand) Evaluate error: No such file or directory ALSA lib pcm.c:2722:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.phoneline:CARD=0,DEV=0 ALSA lib confmisc.c:1377:(snd_func_refer) Unable to find definition 'cards.0.pcm.modem.0:CARD=0' ALSA lib conf.c:5205:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_refer returned error: No such file or directory ALSA lib conf.c:5728:(snd_config_expand) Evaluate error: No such file or directory ALSA lib pcm.c:2722:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM phoneline ALSA lib confmisc.c:1377:(snd_func_refer) Unable to find definition 'cards.0.pcm.modem.0:CARD=0' ALSA lib conf.c:5205:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_refer returned error: No such file or directory ALSA lib conf.c:5728:(snd_config_expand) Evaluate error: No such file or directory ALSA lib pcm.c:2722:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM phoneline ALSA lib pcm_oss.c:404:(_snd_pcm_oss_open) Cannot open device /dev/dsp ALSA lib pcm_oss.c:404:(_snd_pcm_oss_open) Cannot open device /dev/dsp ALSA lib pcm_a52.c:1036:(_snd_pcm_a52_open) a52 is only for playback ALSA lib confmisc.c:160:(snd_config_get_card) Invalid field card ALSA lib pcm_usb_stream.c:481:(_snd_pcm_usb_stream_open) Invalid card 'card' ALSA lib confmisc.c:160:(snd_config_get_card) Invalid field card ALSA lib pcm_usb_stream.c:481:(_snd_pcm_usb_stream_open) Invalid card 'card' ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1000:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave fluidsynth: warning: SDL3 not initialized, SDL3 audio driver won't be usable.
