What am I doing wrong? Should I use another app? start some sortof crazy audio daemon? edit configuration files?
It sounds like you are running Rosegarden using ALSA only. I would suggest using a combination of Jack and alsamidid -e.

Thanks, will do. While waiting for reply, I found this http://tedfelix.com/linux/linux-midi.html and tried the script it suggested, which seems to have allowed rosegarden to record... but pressing the play button resulted in silence. I could see the notes on the screen, but couldn't hear anything from my speakers.
While all this might seem easy to people who are experienced with the linux sound subsystem, I do hope that someday we will have something that works "out of the box" for audio creation, without editing configuration files, opening 5 apps just to get the servers in place, and so forth.
