I've connected the keyboard through jack-midi to yoshimi.
I think jackd kicks yoshi off, because it consumes too much time
in the rt-process then, although this doesn't really explain why it doesn't
happen with 038 that fast.
It just saw it with 038 too. Yoshi stopped for a moment,
but did not get disconnected from jackd, instead jackd reported some xruns.
I'm playing with a latency of 8ms, btw., at a rate of 48000.

A question pops up:
Which would be the most appropriate behavior,
when running out of time in the process thread ?

Stop processing voices ?
Process them, allowing to xrun ? No, I think.
Process them, but disconnect from jack ? No, I think.
Any other options ?
