Would you please kindly share your sndiod line? Do you simply start sndiod, launch fludisynth, and then other apps can send midi messages to (the sndio-exposed) midithru/0 and that gets them to fluidsynth who plays them? The would be the intended way as I understand it: sndiod exposes midithru/0; fludisynth connects to it, taking it as its input; other app connects to it, writing into midithru/0 its output; voila, fludisynth plays the MIDI messages out.
