qsynth failed to create audio driver

Forums

fluidsynth works fine with:
fluidsynth -a pulseaudio -o audio.alsa.device=hw:1 -m alsa_seq -l -i .fonts/FluidR3_GM.sf2 Music/teddybear.mid
qsynth fails with:
Qsynth1: Failed to create the audio driver (pulseaudio).
I've tried to use setup to set everything in Qsynth the same as the fluidsynth settings but something isn't right. Any suggestion?
runnning fedora 17. I'm aiming for the simplest setup possible: one user, one input, one output.
Thanks,
Dave

re. qsynth failed to create audio driver

i'm afraid pulseaudio is not that well regarded 'round here. :(

while on the qsynth/setup dialog, does it also fail if you select the most of the same settings?

otoh. qsynth command line options are NOT 100% equivalent to fluidsynth's nowadays...
