System.
Version 0.9.0beta6 (drivers, libs + utils) installed on Gateway Solo 9300 
laptop with ESS Maestro 2E soundcard, running RedHat7.1

Performance far inferior to that of standard OSS:-
"aplay" seems to compress running time of midi files, rendering them as a 
brief screech

"kmidi" makes a few clicking noises

"timidity" does give recognisable, but not accurate output

Both kmidi and timidity give good results under OSS, but no direct midi with 
the Maestro, which is what I would like.

"/etc/modules.conf " file:-
alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc
alias sound-slot-0 maestro
post-install sound-slot-0 /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -L >/dev/null 
2>&1 || :
pre-remove sound-slot-0 /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -S >/dev/null
