I have similar problems. My mixer also doesn't work properly. I have to use Also 0.9.3 
because anything mroe recent will not work with my 8233 at all. Good luck getting an 
answer other than, "well, it works on my computer" on this list when it comes to the 
8233.

Subject: [Alsa-user] via8233, midi



Hi all.

I have a via8233 onboard chip and I'm still not able to play midi files.

First: Some people told me, the via8233 has no midi-synth.  Is this true?  This would
mean, the windows drivers for this chip are doing software-synthesis.  Can ALSA do
this?  (Yes, I know, timidity can.)

There is no volume control for MIDI in alsamixer.  Is this normal?  The file
/proc/asound/oss/sndstat claims, that there is no MIDI device and no SYNTH device
present.  But I have compiled the alsa drivers with --with-sequencer=yes.  The modules
have build and they're all inserted.  I even have the /devfs/sound/sequencer device,
which disappears, when unloading snd-seq-oss.o.  But when I try to read from it with
`cat /devfs/sound/sequencer', I get the error `no such device'.

What's wrong?

(BTW, the DSP playback is still noisy, when not playing at 48kHz.)
