Timidity should be able to play a .kar file according to 'man timidity'.
Kmid doesn't use a software synthesizer like Kmidi or Timidity but relies
on a hardware syntesizer, either an external one connected to the
gameport of the soundcard using a special cable or a _supported_
one on your soundcard.
In Kmid under settings > midi setup you can choose between the available
options. Btw, the SB Live has a supported onboard wavetable synthesizer.
