That should work, yes.
I just realized - you must be using Pd extended - Pd vanilla is OSS by default, but perhaps Pd extended isn't. I'd suggest switching to Pd vanilla - it should be compatible with whatever externs you're using ,and in general it's more stable than extended.

you can try the [mediasettings] lib from iem which allow you to choose midi driver from patch
or you can also directly send message to pd to setup midi port use : [receive pd] | [print pd] while changing midi settings to monitor what messages you should sent to select OSS MIDI
remember [loadbang] could happen *before* midi and audio settings when pd is launched with -nogui option so if you use a loadbang to change midi settings, you should also have a [delay] just before choosing midi settings to let pd load the driver
moreover, concerning Raspbian, Pd and MIDI, I made a little patch that plugs all ALSA MIDI input device to all output devices (avoiding feedback loop) it's here : https://github.com/avilleret/krapps_remote/blob/master/krapps_remote.pd It's alsa but it's works on Raspbian (but not tested with NanoKontrol) the patch also maps each keyboard key to a MIDI message

I'm trying to use a NanoKontrol on Raspbian. It works fine if select OSS-MIDI from the menu, but I'm hoping to boot up headless & this is the last hurdle (I think). It's defaulting to ALSA-MIDI for me (with and without arguments). If you're confused ... :(
Thanks,

Well, I'm apparently very confused. When I run Pd with no settings or arguments, I get OSS MIDI. So I don't know why in that post I claimed that 'ALSA midi' was Pd's default.
I looked in the pdsettings and found that 'ALSA MIDI' doesn't even get saved in that file - so the ALSA MIDI setting gets forgotten. So the
only
way to get 'ALSA MIDI' is to specify it on the command line.

This thread is so close to being useful to me:

Miller or anyone who knows the answer, can you please tell me what the "this"is that you put in the .pdsettings file? As in, the precise
syntax?
Thanks,
