It turned out that the update broke Qt. Skanlite, qsynth, skanlite.... none
would work.  I had to go back into aptitude, update again, and select a
different solution.

Hardware note: I saw a cheap ($7) USB-to-3.5mm headphone jack and bought it so
that I could free up my Berhinger UCA202 audio codec box. Plugged into a USB-2
port on the back of the mini PC, plugged in my speakers, tweaked mpd.conf and
used pavucontrol to make that dongle the default audio output.

Also edited .xbindkeys (changed "CODEC" to "Audio" to reflect the new device's
name as shown via "aplay -l") to control the new device using the amixer app.

Nice change o' pace.
