It doesn't work out of the box because (just like timidity++) it needs
to be passed a configuration file that specifies what soundfont to use.
We have not yet packaged a soundfont that covers general MIDI
instruments.
Arguably, it *might* work but it comes without a sane configuration.
The question is whether we should add a particular soundfont as an
input and pre-configure wildmidi/timidity to use it by default, or if we
should leave this decision up to the user.
