[Wine]ALSA and MIDI

[Andrew Neil Ramage]

You are missing a sound font.  I know I need one for NoteWorthy 
Composer, but I keep forgetting to reinstall it after I have installed a 
new version of Linux.  You Might try TiMidity++ 
(http://timidity.sourceforge.net/)

You can be the captain
I will draw the chart
Sailing into destiny
Closer to the heart
