hallo nedko, the v2 builds good here, but either there is something 
wrong or i am doing something wrong, but i do not get any sound out of a2j.

what i am doing:

-starting a2j
-starting specimen or zynjacku(with zyn)
-starting vkeybd
-now connecting vkeybd from the a2j-midi-tab with the synth (specimen/zyn)
-the synth is connected to alsa-audio, but plying with vkeybd - no sound.

if i connect the same vkeybd with the same specimen via alsa-midi i can 
play specimen, or if i start jack-keyboard and connect to zyn, i also 
get the sound out of the machine.
i did some experiments with muse too, but no success.

reading this email, do you have a feeling that i am doing sth wrong?

cheers,
doc
