You are most likely missing the MT-32 ROMs you need to dump from a real Roland MT-32 device.

Please refer to https://docs.scummvm.org/en/v2.6.1/adva ... -emulation.

Hello,

Is this the PQ2 DOS version?
Can you verify that you have the required MT-32 roms for the emulation (see here for details: https://docs.scummvm.org/en/latest/adva ... t-is-mt-32) in your game's data folder?

I should note that I tested Police Quest 2 (GOG) with the required roms on a Android 11 device, and it works as expected with MT-32 emulation. If the roms are missing, I get the warning of your screenshot and it falls back to Adlib (I think).

Edit: And I completely missed rootfather's post :) I have to update these tabs more often
