The clicks you're hearing are the loop points which aren't smooth.

The soundfont should be edited so the waveforms at the loop points align (not always possible/enough). Another common trick is to, at the end of the sample, 'fade out' the sample itself and 'fade in' the next loop. These changes would have to be made with some soundfont editor - haven't played with those myself, not sure if there are any good ones available.

It would be kind of nice if qsynth could 'smooth loop' on its own.

you can do that, (or rearrange the loop-point) with swami
