I guess the situation could be somewhat different for an audio

engineer controlling a 'standard' app such as mixer, and a

musician using a GUI as an interface to his instrument.
Also, even in the first case visual quality *does* matter,

but it depends on subtle things rather than on flashy

features - just perceptible shadows, gentle colour gradients

or textures for backgrounds, small differences in the size of

controls, small deviations from grid positions to suggest

functional groups, etc. all help to provide an interface that

is easy to use.
