[https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/250805775646064641/1331606100490846312/Screenshot_20250122-134617.png?ex=67938bd2&is=67923a52&hm=c47667140543ab8be0551b38c245e3a789c2ef93fd8ba4e0058308a760642407&](url)
### Expected Behaviour
well, load, duh.
### Steps To Reproduce
Open LMMS, add an instrument, go in Effects and try to add Carla, either Patchbay or Rack, and you'll be greeted with a wide grey rectangle instead of the plugin UI

Research direction
Start by reproducing the Carla Patchbay or Rack effect-loading steps on the reported Ubuntu-on-Termux setup using a source build of LMMS. Investigate the effect-loading path and capture the missing logs; done means Carla opens with its plugin UI instead of a wide grey rectangle.
