hi,

execute
$ lsmod | grep '^snd_seq' | column -t

the following modules should appear.

snd_seq_dummy
snd_seq_oss
snd_seq_midi
snd_seq_midi_event
snd_seq
snd_seq_device

I'm not sure which one exactly causes the problem.
load the missing ones like this
$ modprobe snd_seq_midi_event
and try again

To automatically load those at startup they can be put
somewhere on the system in a text file. I'm not sure where
this file resides on fedora, it might be /etc/modprobe.conf

greetings,
d
