I'm completely new to this, so be gentle with me.
Ubuntu 18.04, Pulseaudio, JACK not installed.
When I start the program, in beginner mode I get a red box that says: "Stop ALL sounds!", and in advanced mode I get "Panic!".
In any case I get no output sound from the keyboard, although pressing a key appears to show a sound level.
Below is the command line output. I set up the config file according to this link:

Hello!
From what i saw, Zyn isn't connected at launch on the system's sound input. You may have to connect the synth yourself to it in order to have sound. I'm not sure if this step is integrated in the procedure you followed. I use the soft Carla for this - but i don't know if it's JACK specific or not.
