> is there any way to tell *what* isn't working? lsmod tells us the modules are loaded. "pmidi -l" tells us the MIDI ports are there. How did you run sfxload? Does it output any error message? Did you play to one of the wavetable ports? (The MPU-401 is the external port.) Did you unmute and raise the volume of all relevant mixer controls? Please look into the file /proc/asound/card?/wavetableD? to see if sfxload worked (it should say something about memory and instruments). Additionally, some instrument/samples should be locked while playing. > the "Details" page for this card on the Alsa site states: > > - MIDI on SB live drive not working properly. This relates to the second external MIDI port, not to the wavetable synthesizer.
