After a recent dist-upgrade on my "sid" system midi has stopped working.  Both 
soundfonts loaded with sfxload and timidity started as a soft synth 
(timidity -iA -Os -B2,8 &) have stopped functioning. Starting noteedit and 
attempting to config a synth says that no sequencer is available. Sound other 
than midi is working fine.

lsmod gives the following output:

Which leads me to believe that snd-emu10k1 and snd-emu10k1-synth have been 
loaded correctly.

Below is the relevent portion of my modules.conf file

The output of  cat /dev/sndstat gives

--------------------------------------------------
config options: 0

Installed drivers:
Type 10: ALSA emulation

Card config:
Sound Blaster Live! (rev.7) at 0xe800, irq 9

Audio devices:
0: EMU10K1 (DUPLEX)

Synth devices: NOT ENABLED IN CONFIG

Midi devices:
0: EMU10K1 MPU-401 (UART)

Timers:
7: system timer

Mixers:
0: SigmaTel STAC9708/11
---------------------------------------------------

Here we see that the synth devices are not configured anymore :(
Where and how do I enable synth devices in config??

Thanks in advance
RJP
