Ahh! Now I begin to understand why the sound demoes in Java3D were so
silent when I tried to run them here :-D

I would would believe it notices that the delta66 midi does not exist
and therefore card0 as a whole is considered incomplete compared to the
"superior" card1

Apparently the OSS implementation was written on another day by someone
else with a different strategy.

Long shot: Perhaps it could be possible to symlink around the issue, so
that Java believes the midi I/O from card1 belongs to card0?
