isn't this what you want? if you don't get MIDI input, how can it print incoming midi notes?
I guess there's some misunterstanding, I don't think that miditest.pd or generally PD-MIDI is faulty, you're completely right: as long as nothing is connected, nothing can get printed. My problem lies in having my MIDI-controller connected on PD-startup. Right now my only possibility to connect without GUI is to execute "aconnect 20, 128" after PD has opened MIDI. To speak more concretely: after starting PD with mididev-parameters I want to have Arduino connected to PureData in aconnect -l. This works on my desktop machine but not on the fresh updated raspberry.
$ puredata -d 3 -verbose -nogui -alsamidi -midiindev 1 -listdev
try "-mididev 2" (or "-midiindev 2" if you prefer)
I retried, but I already tested various configurations. For now I tried: -mididev and -midiindev with parameters 0/1/2/3/20/21 -midiaddindev 'Arduino Leonardo' and 'Arduino Leonardo MIDI 1' which unfortunately didn't open any ALSA Client.
As expected compiling 0.46.7 didn't help. Root privileges didn't help either.
I'm pretty clueless what my next steps would be to trace this issue. As MIDI works in ALSA and PD I think there has to be a communication problem on opening the ALSA client. Maybe I'm missing a package? What's involved in setting the MIDI connection on startup? I supposed that PD uses aconnect itself to connect to MIDI devices, but maybe there's something different going on?
