Maybe it's some problem with osc gui communication?
Some incorrect hosts setting?

you could also try sineshaper lv2 which is part of ll-plugins.
Despite it's age it compiles fine, you only need a little patch if you
use gcc 4.4, which I just wrote and can be found here:
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ll-plugins/ll-plugins/gcc4.4.patch
