The via82xx doesn't have a hardware synthesizer. It may have an MIDI port
for external devices (must be enabled in the BIOS setup, and see the

The virmidi driver is used to connect other MIDI devices/drivers together.
Without such a MIDI device, its usefulness is rather limited.

Try a software synthesizer like Timidity or iiwusynth.
