Yes, but I tested Alsa (a long time ago) with both MIDI-IN driving soft
synths, and then MIDI-IN/MIDI-OUT driving hardware synths and got the same
'note stuck on' problem. For that reason I say it's a 'MIDI-IN dropped note'
problem, but certainly I do not know this for sure.

I would be happy to try a bit of patching. However, I am on
Redhat/PlanetCCRMA and Gentoo, both of which provide prebuilt Alsa
environments. I can try patching the Gentoo one which is pretty recent, but
it may take a few days before I can get back to you.
