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: -------------------------------------------------- Module Size Used by snd_seq_midi 6464 0 snd_seq_oss 33761 1 snd_emu10k1_synth 6720 0 snd_emux_synth 36640 1 snd_emu10k1_synth snd_seq_virmidi 5760 1 snd_emux_synth snd_seq_midi_event 6112 3 snd_seq_midi,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_virmidi snd_seq_midi_emul 7008 1 snd_emux_synth snd_seq 52784 6 snd_seq_midi,snd_seq_oss,snd_emux_synth,snd_seq_virmidi,snd_seq_midi_event,snd_seq_midi_emul snd_emu10k1 66756 2 snd_emu10k1_synth snd_rawmidi 20608 3 snd_seq_midi,snd_seq_virmidi,snd_emu10k1 snd_pcm_oss 49604 0 snd_mixer_oss 17696 1 snd_pcm_oss snd_pcm 88928 2 snd_emu10k1,snd_pcm_oss snd_timer 22176 2 snd_seq,snd_pcm snd_seq_device 6404 7 snd_seq_midi,snd_seq_oss,snd_emu10k1_synth,snd_emux_synth,snd_seq,snd_emu10k1,snd_rawmidi snd_ac97_codec 60868 1 snd_emu10k1 snd_page_alloc 9412 2 snd_emu10k1,snd_pcm snd_util_mem 3200 2 snd_emux_synth,snd_emu10k1 snd_hwdep 7392 2 snd_emux_synth,snd_emu10k1 snd 47204 18 snd_seq_midi,snd_seq_oss,snd_emux_synth,snd_seq_virmidi,snd_seq_midi_event,snd_seq,snd_emu10k1,snd_rawmidi,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_timer,snd_seq_device,snd_ac97_codec,snd_util_mem,snd_hwdep nvidia 4812960 12 ---------------------------------------------------------- Which leads me to believe that snd-emu10k1 and snd-emu10k1-synth have been loaded correctly.
