There might be a better system-agnostic way to do this, using the This way I could avoid patching OpenTTD for the Flatpak build and just set FluidSynth properly in the runtime. |
Debian now provides a default soundfont for FluidSynth via its alternatives system. In short, FluidSynth is configured to look for `/usr/share/sounds/sf3/default-GM.sf3` as its default soundfont, and each soundfront package (FluidR3, OPL-3, MuseScore...) may provide or override this symlink. By default, FluidSynth is installed on Debian with the `TimGM6mb` soundfont by default due to its limited size. See https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=929185 for further details.
