wine users - Jan 2010 - Re: No MIDI devices in wine

Try opening the sound tab in winecfg. It'll create a ALSA-based default
configuration for you, which might automatically find the right MIDI channels.

If it doesn't, try using a soft synth solution like timidity or qsynth. I
think these automatically pick up on MIDI-supporting sound cards, too, plus
extra MIDI channels that will definitely be detected by Wine will be exposed.

In winecfg's sound tab, there is no ALSA entry at all, perhaps that is 
part of the problem (I get sound in Wine through Pulseaudio).
And using a soft synth doesn't help, because I want to address the MIDI 
hardware of my soundcard.
But thanks anyway.
