ZynAddSubFX hangs at exit. It's not possible to quit the program properly, and therefore not possible to save settings.
>How-To-Repeat:
Run ZynAddSubFX, then try to close its main window. A popup window will appear, asking "Exit and leave the unsaved data? Yes/No". No matter which answer is chosen, the program will hang.

 zynaddsubfx runs two threads.

 The main thread opens /dev/sequencer.
 The second thread reads from the open descriptor and blocks for input.
 The main thread tries to close the filedescriptor and stalls because
 the descriptor is in use.

 The sequencer device driver is buggy, the close should set sc_dying
 and wake up the pending read. So that's a kernel bug, not pkg.
