Hmm... does this work with 1.0.9 with -current sndio? Unfortunately I have no usb-to-midi here so I can't test with an external controller, only from programs on the machine itself generating the midi messages (midiplay, scummvm, etc) which are all working fine. > (BTW, has anyone tried to push the sndio backend upstream?) I haven't..
