Nothing wrong here. It is the same with any USB midi device. I have:

$ cat cards
  0 [M66 ]: ICE1712 - M Audio Delta 66
                       M Audio Delta 66 at 0xc080, irq 19
  1 [AudioPCI ]: ENS1370 - Ensoniq AudioPCI
                       Ensoniq AudioPCI ENS1370 at 0xc000, irq 16
  2 [PCH ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel PCH
                       HDA Intel PCH at 0xf7c00000 irq 33
  3 [AudioFire12 ]: Fireworks - AudioFire12
                       Echo Digital Audio AudioFire12 v4.8, GUID
0014860268b568f1 at fw1.0, S400
  4 [UM1G ]: USB-Audio - UM-1G
                       Roland UM-1G at usb-0000:00:1a.0-1.4, full speed

But:

$ ls UM1G
id midi0 usbbus usbid usbmixer

This shows that this device is a midi device.

A USB device with audio looks like:

$ ls Device
id pcm0c pcm0p stream0 usbbus usbid usbmixer

notice the two sub directories: pcm0c pcm0p which show this device has
one capture device (pcm0c) and one playback device (pcm0p).

so what do you see when you do:

:~$ ls /proc/asound/KONTROL49

If there is a pcm* sub directory, maybe look through to see what audio
device it thinks it has.
