 Hello Tony.
 Not sure if this is the problem you are currently facing, but:
 I experienced MIDI trouble when updating to 2.6.26.3-r3:  MIDI
 messages out of my USB Midisport 2x2 behaved in a completely erratic
 way, as was confirmed by kmidimonitor.

 This was also reported on the LAT list: this message states that this
 particular kernel and USB MIDI do not play well together:
 http://lists.linuxaudio.org/pipermail/linux-audio-tuning/2008-August/000053.html

 I do not know if or in which kernel version this was fixed; I have
 since reverted to 2.6.24.7-r17, which works fine here.

 Kind regards.
