Interesting.
Try a program like shelljam or vkeybd to generate some MIDI events from
the keyboard to the ALSA sequencer (and into Zyn). If that works, you
know you're connecting things right.
Then, use a sequencer like seq24 or rosegarden to record some MIDI
events off vkeybd.
If that works, try the same thing with your Yamaha keyboard. If it
doesn't work now there might be something wrong hardware side, perhaps a
foul cable.
If it doesn work you need to correct something in the drivers. Perhaps
connecting to MIDI-Thru and out of it might give better results.
You can also try a different synth like fluidsynth or hydrogen. If that
works but Zyn doesn't there might be a compilation bug or something like
that.
(as you noticed I got used to saying 'Zyn'. That much easier :)
