Sorry everyone, for keeping the thread hanging...
I was away from my system for a few days, and just got back.

Wow! That looks like a rather comprehensive list. Will try each
suggestion, perform the stress test, and get back to you.
@Lee
Interesting idea. If memory serves me right, restarting only fluidsynth
doesn't solve the problem, but I have to confirm this. Will do so soon...
Cheers,
Guru

Hello everyone,
So I've been trying out AVLinux. By the looks of it, quite impressive
- but I soon ran into a rather serious issue, but I doubt whether it has
anything to do with AVLinux or not. I need your help in this knowing for
sure.
My usual setup involves a piano sample on Linuxsampler and a strings
soundfont on qsynth. I had an unusual gig last week that required no
piano sounds, but instead use of multiple layered samples. I therefore
used only qsynth, with 3 engines running concurrently. So in my brand
new AVLinux setup, I loaded up my samples, and had sooperlooper running
2-3 loops concurrently, all on a core2-duo macbook.
If it only happens when you run more than 1 fluidsynth app at once, a
locking bug in the fluidsynth shared library would explain those
symptoms. Is it supposed to be thread safe?
Does the problem go away if you leave JACK running but restart all the
fluidsynth apps?
