That warning message about "Lost sequencer events" (can't remember the
exact output) is a bug which is fixed in CVS.  Need to make another
FluidSynth release.  It should still work, just is annoying all the
messages that get printed.  The ALSA sequencer is part of the ALSA
drivers and is running in the kernel (not specific to your sound card).
Shouldn't be any need to mess with its buffer size.  Best regards,
