Thanks for the help! That looks very good.

Where do I get the files located in /usr/share/usb/midisport? There's
nothing like that on my system.

I don't know the Novation device, but I had some problems with the Maya
44 USB and some Tascam USxxx (both USB) together with hotplug. The
solution to both problems was to add the corresponding kernel modules to
the blacklist of hotplug. On Gentoo with the standard layout you find
the blacklist in /etc/hotplug/blacklist. On default there should be some
entries in it like 'usbcore' and 'usb-uhci'.
