Hello,

I recently upgraded my kernel from 2.2.5 to 2.2.12 and I can no longer
output MIDI through the correct synthesizer, AWE internal, instead of
OPL3. Obviously the OPL3 MIDI quality is much worse.

I have all sound support correctly compiled as modules and everything gets
correctly loaded at boot time.

I include the output for /dev/sndstat, /etc/conf.modules and lsmod.
Sorry for the confusion!

My conf.modules looks like this:

alias sound sb
options sb io=0x220 irq=5 dma=1 dma16=5 mpu_io=0x330
pre-install sound /sbin/insmod sound dmabuf=1
options -k awe_wave io=0x620
options -k opl3 io=0x388
alias sbawe awe_wave
alias midi awe_wave
post-install awe_wave /bin/sfxload /etc/midi/GU11-ROM.SF2


My /dev/sndstat:

OSS/Free:3.8s2++-971130

Finaly, lsmod:

I thought that by aliasing midi to sbawe would do the trick. In my
previous kernel, it did, now it doesnt....

Any help wold be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
