I didn't know you could do this ... but you can. Easy.
1. Startup timidity as a sequencer client.
timidity -iA &
2. Determine what ports you have. Use aplaymidi -l (aconnect -l doesn't work
on my box). I have a number of timidity ports 128:0, 128:1, etc and a port
for my keyboard 16:0
3. Connect the keyboard and timidity ports (this is probably the step you
missed). In my case:
aconnect 16:0 128:0
Now play the keyboard. Timidity plays the sounds.
Cool.
