I tested Rosegarden on Ubuntu, UbuntuGnome, Kubuntu, UbuntuMATE, Lubuntu, and UbuntuStudio.
In all cases, in attempting to play a MIDI sequence (Rosegarden '.rg' file), wherever I placed the playback-position, it would play only the notes at that position, and not advance any further. It is as if the timer is not advancing. I was able to play those same sequence files, when converted to a MIDI- file (.mid) and playing it using the MIDI Player/Recorder of the KeyMusician Keyboard, which uses the MIDI sequencer in Open Java 8. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1637917 Title: rosegarden 16.06 plays only first note, locks up PC when trying to use HR timer Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in rosegarden package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I don't know why, but I cannot remember Rosegarden ever to be working during the last ten years. I load up some of the examples shipped with it, try to play it, the playback counter starts to wildly fluctuate back and forth around the time point 0. When I try to set the HP timer as timer source for the sequencer, the entire PC freezes. I tried this with regular linux- generic kernel on amd64, and low-latency stock kernels from Ubuntu 16.10. The only way to get the timer on the playback display going forward is to select a recording or playback device as a timer source. But even then only the first note gets played and nothing more. I even tried not having any devices connected to rosegarden, but the playback timer just kept fluctuating around 0.
