@henning that sounds great! In which version did you see this? I expect the build would also need the libasound2-dev dependency, which should be in the control file.
I remember that indeed an alsa sequencer device was created on connection; I only tested (when submitting this bug) midi controllers that provided midi notes, which could drive a drum synth (not the other direction), but I'd expect both directions to work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to bluez in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1713017 Title: Enable MIDI support Status in bluez package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Now that bluez has landed with 5.46-0ubuntu2, it would be nice to enable Bluetooth MIDI support. This did not seem to be enabled by default in the build from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez/5.46-0ubuntu2 (it found BLE MIDI devices, gatttool could talk to them, but no MIDI device was made; also ldd showed no linkage to libasound.so.2). After recompiling it with libasound2-dev installed and --enable-midi in debian/rules, it worked. Suggestion: add libasound2-dev to bluez dependencies, add --enable- midi to rules.
