Thanks for the speedy response.

There appear to be copies of both qsynth and fluidsynth (described as shared libraries) in both /bin and /usr/bin. If it is helpful fluidsynth is a file dated 29/05/20 23:30 and qsynth 03/08/20 17.39

The 'about' button on qsynth tells me I am running qsynth version 0.6.3 using fluidsynth 2.1.3.

In qsynth settings midi driver is jack, channels = 16 and midi bank = gm. audio driver is jack, format 16 bits, sample 44100, buffer 64, count 2, channels 1, groups 1, polyphony 256, jack client name qsynth, auto connect is checked.
Soundfont is /usr/share/sounds/sf2/FluidR3_GM.sf2

Just to add one more thing. If I drag and drop a midi file on qsynth messages tell me that tyhe file is playing but again I get no sound.
