Not sure about it, I never tried to interface a softsynth from Java in
Linux, but I compiled one of the examples at jsresources and got this:

http://www.jsresources.org/examples/MidiPlayer.html

$ java -version
java version "1.5.0_10"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_10-b03)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_10-b03, mixed mode)

$ java MidiPlayer -l
Available MIDI OUT Devices:
0 Real Time Sequencer
1 Java Sound Synthesizer

but...

$ pmidi -l
 Port Client name Port name
 14:0 Midi Through Midi Through Port-0
128:0 AlsaModularSynth ams

So at first glance I got the impression that interfacing alsaseq from
a vanilla JVM is not exactly trivial. Again, didn't look too deep into
it, so I may easily have missed something.
