my recollection is that the ALSA emulation of the OSS sequencer
doesn't work 100%, and i'd be suprised if routing it via virmidi
worked at all! still, i've been suprised before.
personally, i would change the code to either use /dev/midi or the
ALSA sequencer. the OSS one is a piece of junk anyway, and you'd end
up with a well-behaved program that could be used for lots of things.

can you get it to output directly to a real MIDI port?
