No play panel, no midi, no movement - Ubuntu 0.9.4
Suddenly I have no play panel.... it is shown ticked but its not there. I tried the procedure for the known play panel bug in the handbook (which should not apply to this version I guess) with no success.
Using the menu bar play buttons does not work either.
No sound, No movement.
I reinstalled Musescore after a complete removal and reboot.
Same problem.
If there is a config file somewhere that has stuck about and is causing this issue where would I find in in my Ubuntu filesystem ?
All I want to do is reinstall Musescore so it works as it did from day one.
Thanks.

When is the next Ubuntu build due....
I have uninstalled 0.9.4 .... when I reinstall it I get the same errors.
Odd that it used to work though ....
I am asking help on the Ubuntu forums as well just in case it is my lack of Linux skill. I got this reply...
"Oh, and this is the error output I get:
Suspending PulseAudio
Alsa_driver: the interface doesn't support mmap-based access.
init ALSA audio driver failed
no ALSA audio found
sequencer init failed
Couldn't resolve property: 2
Couldn't resolve property: 2
Couldn't resolve property: 2
This is unusual because I'm fairly sure every other app using ALSA works fine on my system through the alsa-pulseaudio compatibility package.
Edit: And for the record it attempts to suspend PulseAudio whether it is running or not. I would say this is probably dumb/broken behavior on the application's part."
Thats what the above user found... but..
I have Pulse fully disabled anyway.... I had to to get my 24bit card to work for any audio at all. so I dont think my issue is with pulse.
I think its loading or failing to load the soundfont maybe ?
Im happy to wait for the next build .... I dont know how to compile early releases myself though.

Installing 0.9.5 through synaptic / ibex I got sound and movement back.
I still don't understand why is stopped working though ?
thanks
In reply to Fixed in 0.9.5 by its_jon
I went into preferences
Enabled 'Continue last session'
Restarted musescore..... Last session loaded but have lost MIDI and Playpanel has gone.
I/o appears untouched...and points to soundfont.
Broken again as in 0.9.4
???
What have I done and how do I fix it.
thanks
