It really does.

# fluidsynth --version
FluidSynth version 1.1.1

I would like to try the setting in the bug report, but oddly
enough I haven't found where the config file, for neither fluidsynth or
qsynth.  Usually on Linux/UNIX systems it's either /etc or the home
directory in a . directory or file.  Can I simply create one in /etc ?
What would be the format ?

I'm willing to try any new version or patches.  I've compiled
fluidsynth for this system, so I can apply patches if needed.  I would
like to get into the code but I simply do not have the time.

Thanks.
