You mean MIDI -> GM device: Don't use General MIDI music? Yes, after changing it to this value from "Use first available" it works.

A similar problem happens on Vita/Switch, see here: https://forums.scummvm.org/viewtopic.php?t=17022
On those platforms I fixed it for the future by defaulting GM Device Config entry to "null".

Just for the sake of completeness, this has been fixed (worked around with the "null" driver) in the 2.8 branch (unfortunately after the 2.8.1 release): https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm/commit/6efbd4f5.
Maybe it could go to master if a proper fix is not possible in a near future?

Good point mikrosk, I’m making this a blocker for the next 2.9 release, so that we won’t miss this. I’ve asked sev about doing so.

Some days ago, this PR has been merged:
https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm/pull/5622
Does that fix the issue?

Indeed, audio now works as expected (verified on a clean setup in Linux and on Atari).
Perhaps someone with Vita/Switch should give the final blessing (with the reverted "null" gm_device in the backends).

@tag2015: did you test this with https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm/commit/fcddbb0fc1d3eb88cbb1dbe4f75c6c2e317f0f67 / https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm/commit/5fe3c560b62b5476f722214ac85116f961476b67 reverted? I don't see the revert commit in master and naturally, with those in place you can't really test the effect of https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm/pull/5622.

Ah, no I simply tested latest buildbot for Vita (with clean config).
I haven't really followed this bug, I just noticed your comment about testing on Vita so I gave it a spin (haven't used it for some time...)

I have created a PR for that purpose: https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm/pull/6226.

@tag2015: the PR was merged yesterday, please retest in a clean setup (without the ini file)
I tested it also with removed scummvm.ini, no change.
