I agree and I thought that the midi keyboard driver would go crazy if
things goes wrong on the usb bus (which is upstream relative to the midi
driver and then the midi events...). But I still tested it!

Argh, I didn't thought it could come from the sound fount I use!
(Indeed, the hardware failure I suspected was "a kind of memory
corruption (fixed pattern interacting only with the 4 notes mentioned?)
leading to a wrong pointer which induces to loop through the wave
table... thus resulting in delayed notes... ok, it might sound crazy but
I thought about it!)
I have multiple sound fonts in qsynth settings (setup/soundfont tab):
1) /usr/share/sounds/sf2/FluidR3_GS.sf2 (Debian package fluid-soundfont-gs)
2) /usr/share/sounds/sf2/FluidR3_GM.sf2 (Debian package fluid-soundfont-gm)
3) AI-APiano02trans.sf2 (from www.sf2-files.com)
4) WST25FStein_00Sep22.SF2 (from www.pianosounds.com)
(... I have to admit that I don't master yet the way I choose the one I
want to play with and configure the presets things the way I want!)
Nicolas.
