Yes, I've connected zyn's output to JACK's system_playback ports.

Yes, did a test with supercollider.

Yes, my original email had details about getting MIDI to zyn. Even though I
have JACK MIDI selected under NIO settings in zyn, it only shows up under
the ALSA midi tab in qjackctl. I installed a2jmidid to get around this and
it seems to work fine. The meters light up, I've tweaked zyn's volume knobs
and according to the meters they are doing what they should be doing.

Yes, no sound.

Haven't tried ALSA audio yet, but even if it worked I would still want to
get JACK audio working.

I've thought about trying yoshimi too, but feel like there is a high
probability I will have the same issue.
