Are you trying to load fluid~ as a library like "-lib fluid~"? If yes:
You shouldn't do that, fluid is just a single external (unless the
audionerd version is somehow changed).

I doubt, that it will help, but you have to select a program after
loading of a soundfont, before fluid~ will make any sound. I still
don't know, why this is so, it hasn't been this way when fluid~ was
sill called fiiwu~ ...

I never compiled anything useful on Windows, so I won't be much help,
but I see that the fluidsynth 1.0.3 zip contains a spurious file
"libfluidsynth-1.dll". Maybe this should be "libfluidsynth.dll"? But I
don't have any clue actually. :(
