What's the exact error message?

Try "/sbin/lsmod | grep synth".  But since your card is a Creative
SoundBlaster Live!, it's most likely the "snd-emu10k1-synth" module.
Give it a try and see if that works.

By the way, the line to put in "/etc/modprobe.d/soundfont" is just *one*
line, I'm afraid it might got warped by the mail client.

If you still have problem, just post here.  We'll try to help as much as
possible
