BTW-- On OSX I get the correct device string "AKM320", and when I set
that device everything looks to be working correctly there.  I only tested
with the GUI port of Pd-l2ork, but I'd assume Pd Vanilla also works there.

qjackctl has three tabs: Audio, Midi, and ALSA.  The device shows up in the
ALSA tab.

lmms has a drop down list for midi in and midi out.  It shows up on those lists,
I can select it, and then I'm off making sounds.  And that is using ALSA as the
backend, so I know this can be done.

aconnect -o sees it:
client 0: 'System' [type=kernel]
    0 'Timer           '
    1 'Announce        '
client 14: 'Midi Through' [type=kernel]
    0 'Midi Through Port-0'
client 20: 'AKM320' [type=kernel]
    0 'AKM320 MIDI 1   '

Neither Pd nor Pd-l2ork see it or list it with --listdev.

I can symlink /dev/snd/midiwhatevs to /dev/midi and it will get
found and work in pd-0.46-7 (but not in Pd-l2ork-- maybe something
with the 0.43 changes? not sure).  But that requires
me to go buy clothes from 2005 off of ebay.  I don't want to do that,
I want *AKM320* to show up in a dropdown list in Pd.

A fun challenge....

Does anything see it?  (In particular, does the qjackctl MIDI patch bay see it?)
Not that that's scientific, but that's the way I check around for whether the
so-called ALSA MIDI driver can find it.
