It seems that the addition of multichannel output has broken the WaveOut driver.
If you try to run FluidSynth with -a waveout, you will get this message:
fluidsynth: audio.periods 8 exceeds internal limit 4
Actually, the default value for period is set to 8, so it will never work unless you change that value before opening the driver. Rather than lowering the default period value or rising the limit of the number of buffers, in my opinion it would be better to free the driver from this limitation, by allocating the needed amount of memory for WAVEHDR too.
Attached patch fixes this bug.
