     Description of bug:

     [When I run tse3play it gives this error and doesn't play anyting:
boobaa at falcon:~$ tse3play glazunov.mid
TSE3 error detected: Failed to create the MIDI scheduler
boobaa at falcon:~$ ]

     How to (repeatably) reproduce the bug:

     [Perform a clean build and install, then run tse3play with any midi 
file. The above error occures.]

     Any other comments:

     [The above glazunov.mid is a sample midi of rosegarden's, which can 
be played with eg. timidity without any errors.]

     Please attach the output of "cat /dev/sndstat" and "cat 
/proc/asound/devices" below:

     [ 18: [0- 2]: digital audio playback
  25: [0- 1]: digital audio capture

I don't have /dev/sndstat, but our lead developer says in the ancient 
times it was a symlink to /proc/asound/oss/sndstat (alsa oss emulation 
comes to the scene), and cat /proc/asound/oss/sndstat says:
