yep, those are the audio ports - BTW, in those you have to make sure
qsynth is connected to "system out", in order to hear the sounds
qsynth will produce. For making midi connections, you have to go in the
"Alsa" tab in qjackctl, and there you should have rosegarden in the
left and qsynth in the right pane.
