I don't know the script, I guess it's some kind of daemon?
You could just enter a line to the /etc/rc.local file to start it
from there.

If the midisport works after re-plugging it's like that HAL does this.
I don't know a solution, but maybe this helps a bit.

It worked pretty well for me so far on ubuntu studio, it doesn't really
need special treatment. Just be aware that you need to turn the
advanced mode on to be able to use most of the features and in order to
change the samplerate you need to disconnect the device, set the switch
on the backside of it to the desired samplerate and reconnect it.
Oh, and I think I read that the "UA-25 something", the newer version,
doesn't work.
