[linux-audio-user] VirMIDI output ports don't work

Hi LAU,

I recently discovered that the output/readable ports of VirMIDI don't
send any MIDI messages but the input/writable ports of VirMIDI still
work.

Here's an example setup:

MIDI keyboard -> VirMIDI 2-0
VirMIDI 2-0 -> synth

This doesn't work, whereas when starting csound4 listening to the input
port VirMIDI 2-0 (with "-M /dev/snd/midiC2D0") and only making the

MIDI keyboard -> VirMIDI 2-0

connection everything works fine.

I use Debian testing, with alsa version 1.0.8 and here's my modules
config for alsa:

,----
| alias char-major-116 snd
| alias char-major-14 soundcore
|
| options snd major=116 cards_limit=5
|
| # emu10k1
| alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
| alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
| alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
| alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
| alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss
|
| # terratec aureon
| alias sound-service-1-0 snd-mixer-oss
| alias sound-service-1-3 snd-pcm-oss
| alias sound-service-1-12 snd-pcm-oss
| options snd-usb-audio vid=0x0ccd index=1
|
| alias /dev/dsp* snd-pcm-oss
|
| alias snd-card-0 snd-emu10k1
| alias snd-card-1 snd-usb-audio
| alias snd-card-2 snd-virmidi
| alias snd-card-3 snd-usb-audio
| alias snd-card-4 snd-usb-audio
|
| alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
| alias sound-slot-1 snd-card-1
|
| post-install snd-emu10k1 modprobe snd-emu10k1-synth

Any ideas?
