I'm afraid the SB 128 PCI does not natively support midi. That's why you have to do all the wave-synthesis in software. Timidity can do this for you (recent versions at least).
You have to compile timidity with support for alsa sequencer. That's the option --enable-alsaseq to configure. Then you start timidity in the background: export TIMIDITY_PCM_NAME=midi timidity -iA -B2,8 -Os -EFreverb=0 -EFchorus=0 Next, find out what midi devices the oss emulation recognizes: cat /proc/asound/seq/oss Now try playmidi: playmidi -e -D <devnum> dilast1b.mid replacing <devnum> by a valid device number. If that works, you should be able to configure your other software to use these oss sequencer devices.
