I can't seem to figure it out. When it plays a MIDI file, it references Timidity++ in the output:

  Metadata:

    instrument      : Timidity GM patches

                    : 8:
                    : 9:
                    : 10:

Playing the file with Timidity++ results in nothing, as Timidity++ apparently isn't a soundfont, and searching "Timidity GM patches" brings up nothing.

Tried TimGM6mb, but unfortunately that's not it. How would I find what soundfont ffplay is loading? I tried looking in the source code but found nothing of use.
